Jeff takes a relatively deep dive into the latest supplement for Call of Cthulhu, Regency Cthulhu. The 224 page hardcover carries an MSRP of $44.99 (with PDF) or grab the PDF alone for $22.99 at DriveThruRPG. Will gamers make this volume as a crowning achievement for those wishing to mix a bit of sense, sensibility, and Cthulhu? Or will this book end up being about as popular as King George IV was with the common folk of England? You'll find out!

The layout looks so much easier to read than Call of Cthulhu.

I have loved this book ever since I got my physical copy. I have also been planning my Regency Cthulhu campaign and during my studies of the book and research on the internet, I also found a few one on one scenarios for the game. I am so excited for this and I thank you for this page through and review.

The focus on the gentry really makes me want to play a game as a bunch of farmers

You certainly could but you're not going to find much info about rural workers here in this book...

I'm really quite disappointed. The book seems to be focused on Jane Austin's first world problems. This era has some low hanging fruit for mythos plots - Mary Shelley's writings; A kingdom with a san 0 king; The easy to corrupt rotten boroughs; A de-mobilised post napoleonic army who can be vectors to bring back looted objects.

The book is telling you it's dealing with Jane Austin's first world problems right on the cover. I certainly don't disagree your plot points would make for excellent adventures but the focus of the book is essentially mashing up the world of popular Regency Era tv shows and Cthulhu. ~ Jeff

Yeah, I'd rather it had committed to being a period sourcebook and answered practical keeper questions like "how do I construct a clue trail in this period?", and "what's the circulation of a publication like the Manchester Observer?"; or been a full campaign with easy to transfer mechanics. Anyway, thanks for reviewing the book :)
