which ones would you recommend?

Well, there are about 40 and I have only seen/owned a few, so that was kind of the question I was asking  :D  :wink:

But, the ones I would not recommend are:

- First Book of Things
- Mysteries of Morocco
- Gaslight Equipment Catalogue
- End Time

The ones I have heard are good are:

- Gatsby and the Great Race
- Machine Tractor Station Kharkov-37  
- The Primal State
- Cthulhu Invictus (which has been reprinted several times)

But if anyone has any specific recommendations, please do chime in!

The Abbey Monograph [CHA0303] is pretty good.
It is a bit short at 70 pages but I like the history behind the Order of St. Jerome.
It is something that a keeper can update into a modern campaign.


Check out my Chaosium sourcebook.

I've been trying to put pictures of two of the Stormbringer series monographs on this post, but I can't figure out how to do it.

[img]url to image file[/img] should do it.

I don't know what that means.

I am trying to place a picture from my own pictures file onto the post, but "paste" is not one of my options.[/url]

Ah, well then, that changes things a bit.  Apologies if you already know bits of this:

You're going to need somewhere to host it.  (http://imageshack.us/ is free and doesn't require an account; I suggest using them.)

Upload the pictures to them, and it will give you a bunch of text boxes with labels, including one labelled "Thumbnail for forums (1)".  Copy the text in that text box into a new post on here, and you'll get a clickable thumbnail that leads to the full image.

Hope that makes sense.  I'm not that good at explaining things. :wink:

They have been hitting high-ish prices in the UK

I would be interested in putting together a package order for a load to the UK - if anyone else from this side of the pond want to split a load.  unless of course there is no longer any point - if Chaosium are no longer doing the free surface shipping order (which I think they are not).  Regardless however, I think that Chaosium's shipping costs are high, so a larger order might be relatively cheaper.
