Wellll ... as much as I love RoC (and I do), I dunno about "complete". The numbers used for converting attributes and skills is solid and accurate, but there are many CoC skills and spells that don't have direct Savage Worlds equivalents. It's not that hard to sort out though, if you keep in mind that all you need to do is change the trapping:
Eibon's Wheel of Mist = Obscure
Deflect Harm = Deflection
Mesmerize = Puppet
Mindblast = Fear
... and so on. Same goes for monsters.
One thing I've noted is that using the conversion notes results in REALLY high stats for some monsters and NPCs, but I think this is more a measure of how high the stats really are in BRP terms vs. Savage Worlds terms. Tone down those stats if necessary. (Frex: ghouls *shudder*)

Cool, thanks!
As long as I can get in the same ballpark, It'll be fine. It's not like Cthulhu adventures have casts of thousands!

Heh, heh. You'd think that ... and then you start running Masks of Nyarlathotep, and ...

Just out of curiosity, anyone pick up our Realms of Cthulhu bennies at Origins?
The ritual I cast on them should have taken effect by now...

Now there's something that needs to be marketed. How to repel creeping doom....Elder Sign Briefs! |

Okay, I'd wear them.

Wasn't able to make Origins. Will these be available at GenCon and, more importantly, available through the Studio 2 store?

They'll be at GenCon. When they'll be available through Studio 2 though, I'm not 100% certain.

We'll have them available shortly on our webstore and will certainly let you know!
Additionally, we'll have our own booth which we're sharing with our good friends from Crafty Games where you can buy RoC bennies and other assorted stuff from us.
Regards,
Sean

Ah, in that case you're directly opposite Cubicle-7 (Booth 315), where the TAG boys will be lurking all weekend.

Holy crap, that's going to be a very busy and fun spot to be in GenCon; count it as my first port of call.
