Miskantonic Monday - July releases for the Miskatonic Repository
Posted by Michael O'Brien on 15th Jul 2019
Here's a great selection of new Call of Cthulhu community titles on DriveThruRPG! Congratulations to all the authors, especially first-time publishers in the Miskatonic Repository.
In 2018 the ENnie Awards introduced a new award Best Organized Play. Despite the name, looking at the nominations this year four out of five of them are actually community content creations in the DM's Guild, (the DnD equivalent of the Miskatonic Repository). So for next year's ENnies, we encourage Miskatonic Repository creators to submit their work for consideration. Submissions will open after Gen Con!
