Greetings!

Hey, OD thanks! I love the idea of a Touch of Lovecraft. And I would like to try out your villian/mininos as written. The Fire Vampires are not the minions I was expecting, but I like them! You have my kind of imagination.

I think the Lovecraft world offers a lot of material that overlaps with the world of ATOE and could be fodder for more ATOE content. Thematically, there are some many references from various Mythos authors to Old One activity and cults in early North America. Rather than throwing everything from the Mythos into the mix at once, like Arkham Horror tends to, ATOE offers the chance to tell some smaller scale, more focused stories about the overlap.

If I ever get my hands on a "Coast" expansion (at a price I that doesn't require I sell a kidney!), I would also like to delve into some sort of Innsmouth-type scenario replete with Deep Ones, Hybrids, and an avatar of Dagon.

Also interested into delving into one of my other favorite creepy colonial-era tales...the Jersey Devil! Unless someone else has already done this as well. Am looking forward to going through the forum here in detail.

Thanks again!

Alas I later revised it & 'lost' the GOO conversions. Here's one I was able to find.

Cthugha


Associated Gate=None

Attack =3
Wounds=5-only hit by non-magical weapons
on 6+(Spells & Magic enhanced weapons hit on 5+)


SPECIAL ABILITIES:

1.Rising Temperatures-all Inv.get -1 on movement roll ,but
1 is still 1.(Note only a Natural 1 generates an Event)

2.Each round of the Showdown Inv.must discard 2 Items,Allies
or Inv. Tokens or be knocked out.

3.When Showdown begins add a Fire Vampire to join Cthugha.
add 1 Fire Vampire for each participating Inv.These Fire
Vampires have 1 more wound than usual.

4.Nothing with the Keyword Fire effects Cthugha or Fire
Vampires.

MINION TABLE Roll d6:

1.Heat Stroke-Event-Roll d6 any town elder with Cunning
equal or less than # rolled killed.Each Inv.gains 1 Inv.Token
per town elder killed.

2.Conflagration-Event-discard top card of each Location Deck
Roll d6 on 4+ randomly remove from game 2 cards from Town
Item Deck

3-5.Fire Vampire Attack-Minion-Fire Vampire gets 1 free
attack then 1 round of regular combat takes place.

Fire Vampires

Attack=4
Wounds NA -only hit by non-magical weapons
on 6+(Spells & Magic enhanced weapons hit on 5+)


Inv.gets 1 Inv.Token for each Hit

When rolled place another Fire Vampire in a random location

6.Fire Bolt-Event-Inv.who triggered this Event must take
a 3 die Attack. Gets 1 Inv. Token for each die that missed.

Some of this stuff is on the AToE Variant Forum but you need to scroll a few
pages back.
