Hello all,

I'm new here and mostly play games other than Star Frontiers.  However, a few months ago, I ran a Star Frontiers game to play test the game for a review in a column called "Lost Game Safari" for Knights of the Dinner Table Magazine.  I had a great time playing "Crash on Volturnus" with people who had played little except 4th Edition D&D.  The journal can be found here:

You'll have to pan down or check out the archives as it was back in July 2009.  There are quite a few details as I audio record all my game sessions now.

EDIT: Ok its a Frank Chadwick RPG and i just located a PDF copy on scribd.com and may just have to bid on a $20 copy of ebay.

It was initially a comic book, yes!  I got some of them years ago and then fell in love with the art and the story.  The game is well-done and a lot of fun as well.  I'm glad I found it.

The group continues reading the strange book thrust upon them in March of 1004 A.D. It relates the events of a group of Romans and others in 162 A.D. who went to an island far northwest of England they called Thule.  This time, the Roman pass through a strange light.

On February 6, I ran another online game of Cthulhu Dark ages, using Cthulhu Invictus to relate the scenario "Thulian Echoes" to the Dark Ages readers.

In the Spring of 1877, three men arrived in the village of Saltmarsh in Washington Territory. Each of them had goals and aspirations of their own, but they would soon be thrown together by the strange events that surrounded that isolated town on the Pacific coast.

On February 16, we continued the Down Darker Trails campaign online, tentatively named Northwest Pacific Fears.  We're starting off using the Advanced Dungeons and Dragons scenario "The Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh" as well as the D&D campaign "Ghosts of Saltmarsh" adapted to Call of Cthulhu in the American west.

This session saw the investigators continue their individual agendas in the village of Saltmarsh, as they start to suss out who opposes them.
