Hello Hero Lab users,

I've just posted a preview of the next game system to be released for Hero Lab- Chaosium's Call of Cthulhu!

You can check out the preview here:

http://wolflair.com/index.php?context=hero_lab&page=call_of_cthulhu

We'll be adding more screenshots and sample output in the next couple of weeks, so check back often for new content.

Call of Cthulhu will be a new add-on package for Hero Lab, and will be released Soon™.
 
Replacing the skill and equipment list would be easy - just a little time consuming. The hard part about Dark Ages is going to be the fact that in the standard CoC game, you roll income, then select an occupation to reflect that. In Dark Ages, each occupation provides its own income. So, if you just want to set a custom income yourself, then select the occupation, everything will work. There are also some rules about starting spells that I haven't studied enough to answer at this point.

We've had many requests for Dark Ages support, so it will be something we want to add at some point. Right now, I don't have any details to give you on when that would happen.

Second question will we see the full Basic Roleplay book and or Rune Quest after this?

Chaosium recommended that we hold off on full BRP support for the moment, but that is planned for when we get the green light from Chaosium (and is covered by our license).

I don't believe we'll be able to touch the original Runequest property from whence the BRP originally derived (I loved that game back when it first came out). The Runequest property is now licensed by Mongoose and the game system has been dramatically changed from BRP. It's possible that we'll be able to structure the data files to allow fan-creation of content for the old RQ rules, but we haven't even looked at that possibility yet.
 
Do we have a release estimate for this? I eager to get this system as soon as possible, especially because I'm about to start a new campaign this weekend and it would be great to have this and testing it out.
 
The CoC data files should be available at the same time we release V3.6, which will be in the next few days.
