Apathy: The Calling RPG

Rules Horror

Apathy: The Calling is a free roleplaying game of Cthulhuian horror. The author writes:

Welcome to Apathy:The Calling a Role Playing Game. In this game you play regular folk dealing with the mythos in the only way they can in the modern age, with apathy. As one of the select few for unknown reasons you can hear Dread Cthulhu as he dreams, calling you to commit unspeakable acts. Fortunately you’ve long been accustomed to ignoring inconvenient realities. You fight back with the inertia and apathy, that has defined you as a generation of slackers, miscreants, good for nothings, baby busters and losers. Apathy, the Role Playing game is a game about the lost generation, everyday life and cthulhu.

Twilight Horror Gaming Yahoo Group

HorrorRules Horror

The Twilight Horror Gaming Yahoo Group offers the Twilight Rules, a set of horror skirmish miniatures rules.

The author writes:

Twilight is a basic wargame system that was designed for quick and easy miniature wargaming in a modern horror setting.  These rules were designed for each human player to play a small group of 1 figure that fight low intensity battles primarily against another player controlling a zombie horde.

These battles were designed to play on a model battlefield environment using 28mm miniatures.  Movement and firing distances are measured using small retractable tape measures.  These rules require the use of two 6-sided dice.  A laser pointer is a nice additional tool but not required.

VS Monsters RPG

HorrorFree RPGsRules Horror

VS Monsters is a free RPG

in which the players take the roles of 19th century monster hunters living in the America of the time. This is the America of Edgar Allan Poe. This is America seen though the goggles of distortion that are used by such greats as Lewis Carrol, Tim Burton, and Mike Mignola. This is America as it never really was.

I really like the feel of this one.

About the Miniature Wargaming Hobby

Miniature Wargaming is part of the "adventure games" hobby, which includes r ole p laying and board games. Wargamers recreate battles on the tabletop with toy soldiers, like a more complicated game of chess. Models range in height from 6mm to 28mm tall, with 15mm and 25mm being the most popular. There also is a growing interest in toy soldiers and military models, such as the 1/32 and 1/35 scale plastic soldiers from Conte, and Marx.

The most popular miniature wargames are fantasy and science fiction based, such as Warhammer, Warhammer 40K, Warmachine and The Lord of the Rings. World War II games such as Flames of War and Axis and Allies are new favorites. Other favorite historical periods include Napoleonics, the American Civil War, and ancients, such as Romans or Greeks. Other gamers enjoy miniature naval wargames, recreating battles like Trafalgar, Jutland and the Coral Sea.

Hobbyists research historical periods and paint their tiny soldiers in accurate uniforms. Others develop "historically realistic" rules sets or build scale battlefield terrain using model railroad techniques.

For pictures, visit the gallery.

Some of the bigger hobby companies are Games Workshop, which produces Warhammer, Wargames Foundry and Old Glory Miniatures. Wizards of the Coast produces several lines of pre-painted miniatures games, such as the Star Wars and Dungeons and Dragons miniatures games, and a historical game with pre-painted miniatures: The new Axis and Allies game. Wizkids produces a fantasy collectable miniatures game, such as the Mage Knight and Heroclick fantasy games, the science fiction games MechWarrior and Rocketmen, as well as the quasi-historical Pirates of the Spanish Main.
