Sept. SNSO: Not-so-super spies on the moon!



Cheerio agents! Get set for a wild ride into the imagination of Charles Stross' Laundry Files in an original adventure by gamemaster Matt Towle calls Dark Side of the Moon!

It's a gonzo mash-up of the setting material from Stross' books and the related Laundry Files roleplaying game but using the new Cypher System rules from Monte Cook Games.

At first glance, this one's tailor made for Stross fans. But really anyone with a love for irreverent humor, Lovecraftian-influenced sci-fi, and spy thrillers through the lens of an overburdened British bureaucracy, will find themselves in GREAT company.

Players take up the role of a special task force sent on a mission to discover happenings strange and supernatural on the moon...but without the resources of a well-funded special ops ministry. As Matt puts it:
Space:1969. While NASA spends millions on cutting-edge rocket technology, your cash-strapped ministry just gave you a wetsuit and a subway token. Next stop: the moon!
