As fans of the game know, Cthulhu Awakens is set in a rough hundred year period called the Weird Century that extends from around the 1920s to the present day.

As a scenario, Brinkmanship requires the Cthulhu Awakens core rulebook. If you backed the Cthulhu Awakens Kickstarter and are entitled to it, check your inbox! If Cthulhu Awakens slithered into your home another way, however…
