If they don't find clues, it seems the story will just stall. Any advice on how I should wade through this cryptic adventure? It seems I will have to read it a few times to get a feel for the timeline and then workout what happens if investigators don't make their roles.
So far, I am dissapointed with my expensive purchase here. Not only this, but there is a huge optional scenario that takes place in 1893. But once in Paris, it just seems to be boring visits to libraries where cryptic journal entries are discovered. The first speech and events kicking off the story is OK. There is a lot of background description of how things were back in 1923 and how buildings looked, but I am having a really hard time figuring out how the campaign should go for the investigators. I am having trouble following the story when reading book 2, which is the first adventure book. This is not the case with the much applauded Horror on the Orient Express. It explained how the events would play out and what consequences were for missed roles.
CALL OF CTHULHU WALKTHROUGH HOW TO
I found the first sample mystery in the keepers guide to be well written and providing good explanation on how to run players through the scenario. I am new to Call of Cthulhu RPG and have read through the Keepers rule book and am just now trying to read Book 2 of the Horror on the Orient express.
