Read through it and I love it! Will be running this with my players in the next few weeks.
Thinking of other spooky things in East Anglia, I'd like to write more scenarios for this campaign, inspired by the Ladybird Plague of 1976 and the Rendlesham Forest UFO incident. Do you have any pointers as to where I might fit these into the campaign relative to the other missions?
The Ladybird plague is very obviously a mythos incursion - the Antagonist in Gold Top could have been trying to summon you-know-who and been given the bounty of insect life as a side effect? Perhaps the locus is at the, then abandoned, Snape Maltings, or perhaps Bawdsey Hall? There might be some giant aphid monster ranging about?
Excellent - I could have used you for research purposes! The Suffolk Coast is amazing - so much more isolated than Norfolk and Essex and just a beautiful place to be.
Just FYI: the first entry in the Table of Contents for v1.2 and the Lulu version is “_Toc157355697Table of Contents.” Might want to trim the “_Toc157355697.”
This is the gold standard which all scenario layout should follow, meticulous and clear without being rigid and stifling. It feels like cheating to get it for free.

Great! Please report back here and let us know how you found it! Feedback is always appreciated.
On the Ladybird Plague and Rendlesham Forest... hmm.
I had toyed with including Rendlesham forest in Gold Top, but the timing didn't work (Orford Ness was closed by then). KARTAS recently did a piece on the Rendlesham Forest incident where they gave advice on including it in play. Worth a listen: https://www.kenandrobintalkaboutstuff.com/index.php/episode-632-an-american-is-b...

This sounds great. Suffolk is my favourite part of Eastern England. I've visited many of the locations and was living just next door in 1971.

Thanks for the heads-up SMM! That's rather annoying. I'm away at the moment, but when I get back I'll fix it and reply here. Thanks!
Ok, now updated to v1.2a for the PDF and the Print-Ready files, which removes the error. If you have any issues, then please let me know!

Thanks for the feedback! Hope you find the material useful :) If you like this stuff, check out my other content as it is largely in a similar vein.
This looks really great - waiting (not very) patiently now!
I'll see what I can do! Just waiting for proofreading to be complete. Nearly there!
Looking forward to this... It sounds great!
Hopefully you will like it!
