My friends, I have a new AS&SH related article in Gygax Magazine #2, available now at Gen Con and soon to be sent out to subscribers.

Gracias,

Essentially it is an article that examines a story by HPL ( The Music of Erich Zann) and another by CAS ( The Devotee of Evil). The article explains how such tales (in place of high fantasy tales of hobbits, elves and so forth -- not that there's anything wrong with that) can be used as inspiration for S&S/weird fantasy gaming. The focus is on dread, sorcerous vibrations that permeate the fabric of the universe; this being a palpable force that may be tapped by the initiated. That sort of thing.  |

Or stumbled upon unwittingly by the uninitiated, who then perish horribly.  Your article certainly sounds awesome and very esoteric. I'll have to pick it up. |
