Also, the game was first published in 1981 and this ship in 2026. They're five years early!
@Taskerland Probably Chaosium's 50th.

@Printdevil @Taskerland I feel like some 90s TTRPGS used at least a bit of art along these lines, particularly in some books published by White Wolf. Maybe im just thinking of John Cobb’s art in particular
@pcas First edition Vampire books look better than contemporary CoC. Like most RPG books of that period, it's a lot of simple monochrome linework but it looks stark and suits the subject matter. @Printdevil

@BigJackBrass Oh yeah!Chaosium was established in 1975 but still... not great as the book comes out in 2026.

@RogerBW D&D art is of a style... but it's a better style than Call of Cthulhu. That selection of single-page Faerun adventures they did had a fab cover. @Printdevil

I'd love a bonkers version of CoC like this.

@Printdevil I've said it before and I'll say it again, gamers have the money with which to buy art books but not the taste to buy wisely. They're the pop culture equivalent of Trump and his solid-gold toilets. @pcas

@satsuma That is definitely too much to just sling in a backpack.
