Board Game

Right now, I am running numbers with Catalyst to determine whether or not we're going to do a CthulhuTech board game this next year. I already have the skeleton for this game done, but we need to get into design specifics very quickly if we're going to have this game out for Origins 2009 (which is what we'd want to shoot for).

The premise behind the game is the Shadow War. Players take on the role of Tagers trying to race around an arcology map, from neighborhood to neighborhood, and stop Chrysalis Corporation plots. They encounter all kinds of events, fight battles, and grow as characters as they fight against a ticking clock. The cool part about it is that the game is entirely cooperative – the players (up to 8) play against the board, not each other.

I'd love to say more, but let's wait until we've committed to making the game a reality before I do so. Any words of support you might have at this point will be useful!
