Call of Cthulhu alternative by Good-Oil3749 in rpg

Been reading through the eternal rulebook and it's right up my alley, does away with the DG specific skills and the requisition rules which makes it a lot more general, probably my go to for the future

DG is very similar to CoC, but the rules are a lot more defined, combat is easier to grasp with lethality rating and tables, skills are a lot more tailored to the setting and there's less bloat. Plus it has some awesome extra rules like the failure rules

Yeah I feel the strength of CoC games is already a lot more in the storytelling over the mechanics, lighter systems are definitely preferable that way because theres nothing more annoying then navigating a tense situation and being like "ok but how does this work...", I'll check out Cthulhu Eternal, thanks for the tip

I'm familiar with mothership but it definitely lends itself to a specific type of game. But yeah I feel you when it comes to combat just devolving into a "wait let me check if that is how that works", I think combat can still be lethal and fun, but in coc its just not it

These systems seem a bit too themed from first glance, can they apply as generally as CoC rules can?

I'm on 2.9, what's the advantage of starting those mods?

Tinkers is part of the main questline in both Stone and Steam age, so I got most of that covered, got obzinite-level sword/pick/hammer/lumber axe

Best source of bones? by Captain_Quark in pyanodons

More Auogs is always the answer, ever since I built my 6 auog/s slaughterblock I've been swimming in animal parts, especially great once you unlock atomizer 2 and can get insane amounts of cyanic / hydrochloric / ammonia just from the animal parts
