Horror on the Orient Express: Unboxing

[@dracopticon7788]

This is a good review. Thanks. I have the new version too and also the first edition Horror on the Orient Express box. They represent quite a big difference in invested work. But I like the simplicity of the old version, and may combine the two, if and when I ever get to gamemaster this huge campaign.

[@Runeslinger]

The new version does represent a very different level of complexity. I am glad you enjoyed this overview even though you already have both~

[@Nolinquisitor]

Chaosium don't mess around. Geez! 192 pages of handouts?

[@Runeslinger]

Plus the bigger ones like the matchbox and amulets... ;)

[@Nolinquisitor]

I'm slightly disappointed. Where's the authentic Arkham 1920's single malt whiskey?

[@Runeslinger]

I asked about that, apparently the postman drank it.

You have a Luck of 90% - the only thing Cthulhu sends me are funky dreams... 😃 PS thank you for measuring with body parts using your hand :-)

[@Runeslinger]

Of course, some could be driven to madness trying to divine the true size of my hand...

[@PhilGooch]

Congrats on being one of the few backers that have actually received their reward so far! Still waiting for mine ...

[@Runeslinger]

I have to admit to a little surprise. I assumed I would be among the very last. Where is your headed?

[@PhilGooch]

Runeslinger I'm in the UK. Based on the comments page on Kickstarter for this project, I'm not sure if any European backers have got their copies yet. Chaosium have suggested these are being shipped 'next week'

[@Runeslinger]

Not the dreaded 'next week'! Roll SAN~

[@Electromagnetichumanoid]

That's really really cool! Someone's been real busy!

[@Runeslinger]

This represents an immense amount of time and work...perhaps some love and madness as well~

[@Electromagnetichumanoid]

More box opening with Runeslinger... very exciting, and no cost to the viewer... cheap thrills! P.S. Black isn't a colour... it grabs onto light, and doesn't let it go ;O)

No labourers were harmed in the making of this motion picture.

How (if at all) are your books organized?

[@Runeslinger]

They shift around a bit for convenience, but in general by genre, company, game, size, edition, type. Some awkward, fragile, or rare ones are kept apart.

[@gadrielvanorion9872]

gotta be honest, after the masks 7th edition version, this feels KINDA one tone if you just look at the books, kinda dislike that.

[@Runeslinger]

It is the bridge product between where Chaosium was and where it was heading~
