Fantasy Flight Games is proud to announce the upcoming release of Denizens of the Underworld, the sixth deluxe expansion for Call of Cthulhu: The Card Game!
It’s time to send Arkham’s coppers and cultists to sleep with the fishes! In Denizens of the Underworld, the Syndicate’s rogues and racketeers run amok, controlled by the criminal kingpin himself, Danny O’Bannion. Business is good at The Clover Club, even though the house always wins, and the criminal underworld pursues a host of new tactics to make sure no one ever muscles in on its turf.
Denizens of the Underworld introduces 165 new cards to Call of Cthulhu (three copies each of fifty-five individual cards), roughly two-thirds of which provide the Criminals of the Syndicate with new names, tools, and tricks. You’ll be able to build stronger decks around characters with the Criminal subtype, use new tricks to cheat luck, ensure no contest is ever fairly fought, and explore new Tactics. Additionally, you’ll find a new Ancient One, a new cop to pursue all the new criminals, and new characters and Tactic events for all of the game’s other factions.
Maintaining a criminal organization as powerful as the Syndicate requires the diverse talents of a range of thugs, hit men, con artists, burglars, and arsonists, and Denizens of the Underworld allows you to recruit all these Criminals, and more, to your Syndicate decks.
The Criminal subtype has long been the Syndicate’s hallmark, and Denizens of the Underworld pushes this aspect of the faction’s identity even further with sixteen new Syndicate Criminals. From the organization’s hit men to the Clover Club Pit Boss (Denizens of the Underworld, 12), and from the divers sent to salvage goods from the bottom of the sea to the fall guy used to deflect unwanted attention, these new Criminals ensure that the Syndicate can always call upon the right mix of skills and abilities to protect its interests… even as those interests push further into realms dark and sorcerous.
Of course, one doesn’t have to become a full-fledged member of the Syndicate to get involved in organized crime. One can simply take a bribe, or take the occasional odd job without asking questions, and the cards of Denizens of the Underworld don’t limit their Criminal intent to the Syndicate alone. Other characters, like Robert Friendly (Denizens of the Underworld, 44), may lend their services to the Syndicate as the organization explores new partnerships in decks built around the Criminal subtype.
