==Books== Eight books have been released for CthulhuTech. These books provide with a variety of material to play a variety of games with. The books are: *'''CthulhuTech Core Rulebook''' is just that: the core rulebook. It's comprehensive with enough material to run all kinds of games from Engel and Mecha games to Eldrich Society games, as well as police and investigator games. It is guilty of the whole "talk about stuff that appears in late books so you have to buy those" thing with Para-Psychics. *'''Vade Mecum''' (Latin for useful book/useful object, used in the context of a frequently referred to handbook) is the CthulhuTech Companion. It is essentially more CthulhuTech. It has rules for Cascades (gun fu and other martial arts), more Mecha and Tagers, the rules for Para-Psychics, new monsters, new spells and all sorts of other stuff. Also, focuses on underwater combat. *'''Dark Passions''' is a sourcebook on the various smaller cults. This makes them ideal enemies for police and investigator games, and possibly an entry point for Tager games as well. If you play a higher powered game however you won't find a lot of information here though. Note that there are two versions of this book: the original Mongoose printing which is in black and white, and the full-color Catalyst printing which is the standard for the game. *'''Damnation View''' is the metaplot book for the year 2086. It details how things are going to shit for the NEG and includes a number of storylines. It also details Secret Services, which act like more or less the Men in Black for the NEG. Very railroady adventures, and home to the infamous furry sex adventure, where in order to infiltrate a cult your characters get mind-controlled/date raped by deviantart furries. Where a lot of people realized how [[Magical Realm]] the game was. *'''Mortal Remains''' is the NEG/Migou sourcebook. It details daily life in the NEG, looks into the Nazzadi and describes the Migou and their mindset. Includes new vehicles and mecha for both parties, describes how you can make Migou characters and lists rules for the Nephilim. *'''Ancient Enemies''' is the sourcebook for Tagers and the Chrysalis Corporation. It has two new Tagers and metamorphized versions of all ten of them, new Dhohanoids, backgrounds on both the Eldritch Society and the Chrysalis Corporation and rules on how to play a Dhohanoid game alongside rules for them. *'''Unveiled Threats''' is the gear book detailing weapons (now fully illustrated), gear, vehicles, and armor. Also includes rules for drugs (coke is now sold over the counter!), new spells of all kinds, magical artifacts that will mess the user up, some background on technology and some weapons and armor for both the EOD and the Migou. *'''Burning Horizon''' is the metaplot book for the year 2087. The Independent Solar Colonies, a coalition of the survivors of the various NEG colonies, has made it to Earth after kicking the Migou's asses and deals so much damage that the Second Hive Ship runs back to Pluto, [[AWESOME|and the Hive Ship in orbit gets stormed in a massive assault by the entire human military that it's heavily crippled, but not destroyed(the book explicitly tells it would break the setting)]]. The Migou are sore losers (Being kicked in the shins by your recently cloned slaves and the butt-monkeys of the universe, humans would make anyone bitter) and unleash the Migou Hemorrhagic Virus, which is pretty much [[Nurgle|Influenza meets Ebola on steroids]]. A cure is invented, however [[Heresy|it's rewriting of DNA and empowering the individual with immunities is shunned by some Earth citizens]]. The ISC forces have brought along new technology in the form of the Inertial Dampener, an expansion on the D-Engine which pretty much negates any inertia you'd experience in space, allowing a ship to start and stop on a dime and turn at speeds that would normally liquify a human from sheer G-forces alone. The book contains rules for space combat, new mecha, and vehicles for fighting in space and rules for ISC characters who now fight alongside the NEG forces as the Coalition. The plot is promoted from Grimdark to Nobledark.
