P500 – Cthulhu Mythos Call #3 Preview

As previously announced, we decided to officially produce the Cthulhu Mythos Call #3 expansion, which was, until now, only available as a Print & Play product. For the people that didn’t specifically follow the product announcement from last year, I’d like to get back to the 4 punchboards in this product.

This expansion offers you new reinforcements for two factions: the Investigators and the Black Sun.

Three characters will join the ranks of the Black Sun, of which the pleasantly smiling Heinrich Von Kamptz is already well known by Heroes of Normandie players. This SS officer can now call on N°DCLXVI, the ultimate evolution of the terrifying ‘Toten’, and bring these undead into battle.

Among the available options in this product, you’ll also get to know the Bloodborn, creatures with a particularly staggering breeding rate, laying eggs in their victim’s blood! Once that sinister task is accomplished, the Black Sun sorcerers got into the habit of cleaning sectors with flamethrowers, the only effective manner to stop the multiplication of Bloodborn.

For the Investigator faction, Ariane Dubois lends her services to the Cellule du Guesclin and Julie Aubrac, an FFI group whose members were already fighting against the Mythos cultists long before the war. They’re now joining the battle to stop the Black Sun from concluding their dark projects. In Shadows over Normandie, the FFI are the basic troopers for the upcoming Investigator faction. In order to let them face conventional enemies, as well as occult creatures, a wide range of options are now available to personalise the FFI of this expansion, but also those of other Heroes System products (the single FFI punchboard, Civilians Under Fire and Gazette N#8). It’s even possible to field FFI units corrupted by the Mythos, making them join that faction thanks to an option.

After this quick overview, you can now download the Cthulhu Mythos Call #3 booklet.

To play these three scenarios offered in this booklet, you’ll need, next to the Shadows over Normandie core box: the SS Panzergrenadiere punchboard and the Civilians Under Fire expansion of the Heroes of Normandie range, as well as Battleground Set #4 – Woods & Hills.

Let’s meet again in a few days to show you more about Battleground Set #4 – Woods & Hills.

And don’t forget the launch date of this P500:

Monday, June 3rd, 18h00 (French Time)

   Julie est un personnage de HoN que j’intègre à l’univers SoN… comme Heinrich Von Kamptz.
   Ce produit propose une tuile alternative (avec un Slot et la capacité de s’embusquer) comme nous en avons déjà proposé pour d’autres personnages.
   Les joueurs qui ont les deux versions pourront choisir laquelle jouer.
   Mais je ne vais pas changer le nom du personnage. 😉

   Super !
   Par contre en y réfléchissant bien : je ne vois pas trop l’interêt d’avoir dupliqué Julie.
   Ceux qui l’ont en double ne vont jamais se servir des 2 en même temps et pour les autres autant avoir un nouveau perso !
   Je me demande donc si avoir 2 Soeurs jumelle ne serait pas cool ?
   En plus rien de mieux que des jumeaux en temps de guerre pour troubler l’ennemie: être à 2 endroit en même temps pour des FFI ce serait très utile non ? Pour embobiner nos amis les chleux 😉
   Donc perso je remplacerait bien la Julie de ce punchboard par Juliette (ou autre), avec des caractéristiques identiques ou légèrement différentes.
   Qu’en pensez vous ???

   La correction a été faite et les visuels mis à jour. 🙂

   Il y a effectivement une différence. Julie a +0 contre +1 avant pour les véhicules légers. C’est bien ce que vous avez détecté?
   Je pense que c’est une erreur. Je vais corriger ça si c’est confirmé.
   Merci.

   Bonjour,

   Vous avez eu le temps de vérifier ça:

   “Est-ce normal que la tuile personnage de Julie ne soit pas identique a celle du punchboard FFI ? (Je parle de la tuile du personnage par celle du recrutement).”

   Merci

   “On the back of punchboard 3, should the recruitment tile for Van Kamptz show 4 victory points for defeating him?”
   No, it’s a field command.

   “Flammenwerfer” > OK

   Edits:

   On the back of punchboard 3, should the recruitment tile for Van Kamptz show 4 victory points for defeating him?

   On the front of punchboard 4, the unit ought to be spelled Flammenwerfer (with two m’s).
