- Shoot Nazi Shoggoths in Achtung! Cthulhu Tactics, out now - 4 October 2018
The Third Reich were bad enough to begin with, but now they’ve got squid-men there’s twice as much reason to gun them down in Achtung! Cthulhu Tactics . Developed by Auroch Digital, it’s a pure tactics game with some light RPG elements based on Modiphius’s pulpy Call Of Cthulhu spinoff tabletop setting – it’s out now. While superficially similar to XCOM, Achtung! Cthulhu Tactics seems more like Call Of Cthulhu: The Wasted Land with a dash of Hellboy. A team of military hard-nuts and mystics fight a secret war against Nazi mad scientists, occultists and monsters from beyond. Below, a launch trailer and a two hour walkthrough with the devs. (more…)

Cthulhu Tactics launched today on PC, priced at £19.99 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-n9w4WB4-7s&feature=youtu.be Based on the wildly successful tabletop RPG from Modiphius Entertainment, Achtung! Cthulhu Tactics is set in an alternate World War II where the Nazis have gained a considerable advantage by summoning Lovecraftian monsters that could enable them to destroy the allies. Players take control of Charlie Company, an elite band of allied forces, sent in to do the impossible, foil the Nazi plans and turn the tide of war. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F33279924%2F729769c3bf53f5050cc5e276068756549bdbb12c.gif https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F33279924%2Fd47f3a6e%25E2%2580%25A6

- Achtung! Cthulhu Tactics slithers into stores on October 4th - 20 September 2018
I’m no expert on eldritch elder fiends, but I’m pretty sure that you’ll need more than a WW2 SMG to bring down a Shoggoth – maybe the troopers in Achtung! Cthulhu Tactics know better, though. It’s a superficially XCOM-ish tactics game based on Modiphius’s Call Of Cthulhu spinoff RPG setting , building on the old trope that the Third Reich were dabbling in the occult. Stands to reason that they’d try to summon everyone’s favourite squid-faced alien sea-god. Developed by Auroch Digital, it was Kickstarted in February and launches on October 4th. Below, the launch trailer. (more…)
