I’ve been making a lot of progress on this, and have gotten the Glorantha and Planet Apocalypse crossover pages typed out (ex. https://cthulhuwars.fandom.com…..Apocalypse), and am now working on adding the unpainted units. This page appears to have every unpainted model except for the Nuckelavee and some of the investigators. Any chance you have images of those?

Sorry, don’t have any photos of those shot right now. I can make a note for the next time I do a photo shoot to dig out PA expansions and try and fill out the holes.

I was able to rip Nuckelavee and the investigators from the rulebook, and they look well enough so that’s good. Just have left the tokens (Cyst, Scylla Head, and Orobas’s Royal Token, which I assume is just the Lord’s Shadow token, I haven’t played the game yet).

With Glorantha, I was able to find images for the Submerged, Evolution, and Aldraya tokens mentioned in the crossover rules, but I’m not sure what is meant to be the two-sided moon token for red goddess or the devastate token for luathans.

I can get you crappy versions of the various tokens. But Tony has better ones.

With a bit of work, I was able to kajigger the png of the Submerged, Evolution, Aldraya, Cyst, and Scylla Head tokens, and I used the Lord’s Shadow Token for Orobas’s Royal Token. Someone told me on the discord that the Luathan’s Devastate Marker was from an earlier version of their rules, and that the final version is just to tip them over, so I modified the rules with that.

So, at this point I just need to know how the Moon token works. There are some large moon pieces in the Glorantha box that have a reddish edge and a blackish edge, but nothing that looks like a two-sided red and black moon token.

I’ve started revamping the Cthulhu Wars wiki to give it a little bit of visual polish, and hopefully make the information more presentable. I can get most of the information pretty easily, but I could really use help with (1) getting painted photos of units (can be from anyone’s collection), hopefully with transparencies already done, and (2) getting unpainted images of the crossover units and some of the not clearly photographed components (shining trapezohedron components, neutral identifier rings, etc. — if there’s a clear, individual picture of it in the catalog or rulebook I can get it no problem, but a lot of this stuff is shown in crowds).

Also, if anyone wants to help type up the prologue info for each faction, or can help me locate the fonts used on them, I would be over the moon.

Anything y’all can do to help would be incredibly appreciated.

Would anyone happen to have a transparencied png of the Azathoth faction symbol? I tried to kludge one here by grayscaling the daemon sultan sigil, but it doesn’t look quite right to what’s on the spellbooks.

I can’t seem to find it, can you try again? Or if you want, just upload it to the wiki.

Okay so I’ve got the basic template structure up for pretty much every page, barring a few of the non-unit things like upgraded ritual tracks. I need to clean up the various strategy sections as well, but all is progressing at a good pace.

For images, I’m looking for:

Painted:

  • Brain Cylinders: all
  • Acolytes (Classic): all factions
  • Acolytes (Alternate): GC, SL, TT, YS, DS
  • High Priests (Classic and EHP, excluding YS Classic)
  • Brood, Filth, Web, Desecration, Elder Signs, Ritual marker, Power Markers, Doom Markers
  • Dark Demon: all but CC
  • Faction Gates
  • Investigators
  • First player markers
  • Something about Cats, Penguin, Elder Shoggoth, Bubastis, Daemon Sultan
  • Glorantha figures
  • PA figures: Investigators, Demon Gate, Nuckelavee, Secutor, Mandrake, Elemental, Magdalene, Gadarene, Raparee, Hortator, Bellatrix, Philter, Tardigrade, Tarasque, Scylla, Stheno, Chthon, Asmod, Procrustes, Humbaba, Geryon, Argus, Cyst, Scylla Head, Lord’s Shadow
  • NMonsters: Ghast, Gnorri, Gug, Shan, Lengspider, Moonbeast, Satyr, Shantak, Voonith
  • Terrors: Brown Jenkin, Yithian, Luong-Hound
  • Nodens, Zoog, Bhole, Slime Molds, Watcher, Custodian, Librarian, Ghroth-Worms
  • IGOOs: Atlach-Nacha, Byatis, Cthugha, Harbinger Cthulhu, Daoloth, Dire Cthulhu, Eihort, Father Dagon, Ghatanothoa, Glaaki, Mother Hydra, Nyogtha, Haunter, Risen One, Tulzscha, Y’Golonac)
  • Azathoth: all units
  • Homebrew: all units
  • Dark Young, Fungi, Ghoul
  • Buffthulhu, Cthulhu, Deep One, Shoggoth, Starspawn
  • Spawn, Serpent Men, Wizard, Tsathoggua
  • Cathedral, Unmen, Reanimated, Yothan
  • Gnophkeh, Ice Age, Ithaqua, Wendigo
  • Byakhee, Undead, King, Hastur
  • Ubbo
  • Unique High Priests (if anyone’s done that)

Stock:

  • Astral Acolyte
  • Azathoth faction glyph (grey) (still can’t find Tony’s email, please resend)
  • Classic TT Acolyte
  • Classic AN Acolyte
  • Something About Cats/Bubastis/Penguin figures as photos instead of CAD models
  • Brain Cylinders (excl. BG)
  • EHP High Priests
  • Neutral Unit Identifiers
  • Nuckelavee as photo instead of model (to match the rest of the photos from the kickstarter update)
  • Barrier of Naach-Tith tome
  • Yr and the Nhhngr tome
  • Oversized 3-5 player map
  • Glaaki’s Green Decay spellbook
  • Back of The Risen One’s spellbook
  • Crawling Chaos signed artprint (version on site does not download correctly)

Images are way easier to get added if they either already have transparency added (as images in the PG store or the rulebooks usually do) or if they are on a mostly monochrome (pref. white) background, and with the unit placed on its own, not in a crowd.

Also, the images for the 6-8 player maps in the rulebook appear to match the images given of the regular maps. Are they identical in reality?

 

Hopefully should be done with this by the end of the year.

for obvious reasons we at Petersen Games are slammed right now. Not only are we struggling with the financial effects of the global pestilence which is shutting down conventions and slowed production, but we are in the middle of a Kickstarter campaign. So we can’t spend a lot of bandwidth on helping the Cthulhu Wars wiki right thsi second. Be aware that it is still on our radar though.

Oh of course of course, this was also as a general ask for the community, not just PG.
