As I've already mentioned I'm currently reading some H.P.Lovecraft stories and have even had my old 3rd edition RPG rulebook out. In fact I'm quite tempted to buy the latest (d20) version of the rules with a view to running some small games. It would be a bit of a departure for my gaming group, the Dagenham Dungeon Delvers, but I think it would be fun.
I would probably have to tone down the danger levels in my games a little. Last time I ran a game I killed off all the players (oh happy days). In another game I convinced my wife to take part in a CoC game based on the story of the Reanimator, Herbert West. At a crucial moment her character slipped down a flight of stairs and was knocked unconscious, thereby missing the climactic battle at the end of the game. She wasn't amused and has never played an RPG since. I on the other hand have since learned that a GM can (and must) occasionally fudge rolls for the sake of that elusive element known as 'fun'.

Of course if we did decide to play some CoC games I would have to paint some suitable miniatures. I have a few half finished models in my model box that could be revived and completed quickly. Although a full scale Cthulhu might be a bit ambitious...
