I will be running a Call of Cthulhu investigation set during the Emu War for them on September 7, between 1 and 5pm, at Rubix Warehouse (36 Phoenix Street, Brunswick). Here’s the blurb:
Times are tough. 1932 is staggering to a close, and there’s no end in sight to the Great Depression. There’s no jobs for an honest working man, except the one that’s always hiring: the Army. So you enlisted. Three meals a day, accommodation covered, money to send home to your family. It could be worse. I mean, it’s not like you’re gonna be called on to go to war like your dads were.
But you have been ordered to go out to some place in the middle of nowhere and help some farmers deal with some bird pests. They’ve been trying to shoot their way out of trouble, but this is beyond anything a bloke with a bolt action rifle or a shotgun can handle. This calls for Maxim machine guns and men who know how to use them. And that’s you.
It could be worse.
