==Details== [[Image:Shadows Over Scotland.jpg|thumb|''Front Cover'']] '''Publisher:''' [[Cubicle 7]] '''Product Code:''' 7353 '''Publishing Year:''' 2011 '''Pages:''' 288 '''Cover Price:''' £26.99 (2011) '''Author(s):''' [[Stuart Boon]] '''Artist(s):''' [[Jon Hodgson]] (cover & interior), [[Paul Bourne]] (layout), [[Jan Pospisil]], [[Andy Hepworth]], [[Eric Lofgren]], [[Scott Neil]], [[Nicole Cardiff]], [[Pat Loboyko]], [[Nate Furman]] '''Setting(s):''' [[1920s]] '''Format(s):''' Hardcover and PDF '''ISBN:''' 978-0-85744-046-4 ==Contents== Mysterious, wild and beautiful, Scotland in the 1920s is home to horrors modern and ancient, man-made and star-born. From the rolling pastoral Lowlands to the snow-capped peaks of the Highlands and the seaweed-choked Western Isles, creatures and cultures have taken root in Scotland whose maddening, corrupting influence can be felt far and wide. Fiendish things haunt the hive-like alleys and wynds of old Edinburgh, while Glasgow’s streets whisper with rumours of dark terrors in the shipyard shadows on the snaking, poisonous Clyde. And in the isles, murmurs on fishing boats and ferries speak of far older things, of sites of power and standing stones, awakenings and stirrings in forgotten places. Something terrifying lurks in the night, casting dark shadows over Scotland. In addition to 6 scenarios (see below), Shadows Over Scotland is very much intended to be a resource for Keepers. There is a wealth of information for creating Scottish scenarios here, including: * an '''Introduction to 1920s Scotland''', incorporating: ** Scotland in the 1920s ** A Keeper's History of Scotland ** A Mythos Timeline ** The Lingo of 1920s Scotland ** Notable Figures of 1920s Scotland * three regional sections--'''The Lowlands''', '''The Highlands''', and '''The Islands''', which include sections on: ** Geography ** Culture & People ** Flora & Fauna ** Climate ** Mythos & Scenario Seeds ** Cities in Detail ** People & Places of Note * and '''six sinister scenarios''': ** Death and Horror Incorporated ** The Hand of Abyzou ** Uisge Beatha ("The Water of Life") ** Heed the Kraken's Call ** The Forbidden Isle ** Star Seed * in addition to known Mythos cultures and creatures, the book introduces '''a large number of unique Mythos entities''', such as: ** ‘Old Maggie’, the Crone of Appin Hill ** The Thing in the Clyde ** Sawney Bean ** The Blue Men of the Minch ** Bishop Warlock ** The Floating Horror of Glen Affric ** ... and others too horrible to mention! For each region, '''nine 'Cities in Detail'''' are provided with further discussion of locations, personalities, and Mythos elements. These are: * Edinburgh, Glasgow and St Andrews for the Lowlands; * Aberdeen, Inverness and Fort William for the Highlands; * Kirkwall, Portree, and Stornoway for the Islands. '''Scenarios:''' [[Death And Horror Incorporated]], [[The Hand Of Abyzou]], [[Uisge Beatha ('The Water of Life')]], [[Heed The Kraken's Call]], [[The Forbidden Isle]], [[Star Seed]] '''Additional:''' Introduction, History Timeline, Lingo, Notable Figures, Mythos Spells & Items, Index ==Front Cover Text== Cthulhu Brittanica Shadows Over Scotland A Scotland Sourcebook for Call of Cthulhu by Stuart Boon ==Back Cover Text== Mysterious, wild and beautiful, Scotland in the 1920s is home to horrors modern and ancient, man-made and star-born.

Shadows over Scotland is a massive new hardback sourcebook for Chaosium’s Call of Cthulhu roleplaying game covering Scotland in the 1920s. It features: * three comprehensive sections detailing the Lowlands, Highlands and Islands; * individual sections on history, folklore, language and life in 1920s Scotland; * a complete mythos timeline; * detailed coverage of nine cities and their various inhabitants; * and, six sinister adventures complete with extensive handouts. ==Comments / Trivia== Published in both hardcover and PDF formats.

A seventh scenario [[The Ballad of Bass Rock]] was initially intended to be included in the book but was subsequently removed when the book ran long in layout. Cubicle 7 subsequently released the scenario as a separate downloadable PDF scenario. ==Awards== * Best Adventure Collection [http://diehardgamefan.com/2011/12/26/diehard-gamefans-2011-tabletop-gaming-awards/ Diehard GameFAN 2011 Tabletop Gaming Awards] * Best Roleplaying Supplement or Adventure at the [http://gama.org/OriginsAwards/tabid/2720/Default.aspx 38th Annual Origins Awards (2012)] * Best Setting at the [http://www.ennie-awards.com/blog/congratulations-to-the-2012-ennie-award-winners/ ENnie Awards (2012)] * Finalist for Product of the Year at the [http://www.ennie-awards.com/blog/congratulations-to-the-2012-ennie-award-winners/ ENnie Awards (2012)] * Finalist for Best Roleplaying Game Product at the [http://www.geas.org.uk/conpulsion/blog/2012/03/28/the-griffies-finalists/ Griffie Awards (Conpulsion 2012)] ==Reviews== * [http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/08/20/cardboard-children-shadows-over-scotland/ A Rock, Paper, Shotgun Review by Robert Florence] * [http://diehardgamefan.com/2011/09/16/review-cthulhu-britannica-shadows-over-scotland/ Diehard GameFAN Review by Alexander Lucard] * [http://www.rpgnow.com/product_reviews.php?products_id=93915 DriveThruRPG Review by Cedric Chin] * [http://www.drivethrufiction.com/product_reviews.php?products_id=93915 DriveThruRPG Review by Herbert Severson] * [http://www.gmsmagazine.com/role_playing_game/cthulhu-britanica-shadows-over-scotland GMS Magazine Review by Paco Jaen] * [http://cronvek.com/nearlyenoughdice/review-of-cthulhu-britannica-shadows-over-scotland Nearly Enough Dice Review by Steven Orton] * [http://danharms.wordpress.com/2011/08/28/on-the-shelf-review-shadows-over-scotland/ On The Shelf Review by Dan Harms] * [http://paizo.com/products/btpy8gdf?Call-of-Cthulhu-Britannica-Shadows-Over-Scotland Paizo Review by Stephen Martindale] * [http://rpg.polter.pl/Shadows-Over-Scotland-c24584 Poltergeist Review (in Polish) by Paul Cybula] * [http://rlyehreviews.blogspot.com/2011/08/dae-ya-ken-cthulhu.html Reviews from R'lyeh Review by Matthew Pook] * [http://www.rpg.net/reviews/archive/15/15410.phtml RPG.net Review by Boris Cibic] * [http://www.rpggeek.com/thread/788936/the-high-road-to-scottish-adventure RPGGeek Review by Eric Dodd] * [http://roachware.blogspot.com/2011/12/schafsmagen-und-dudelsacke.html Schafsmagen und Dudelsäcke Review (in German) by T.
