It's not even mainstream CoC, so it may be easier to adapt to BP (and has some nice ideas for space tech, such as reduced-recoil guns and suchlike). > And, as was mention by someone else, 'Grace Under Pressure' from Pagan >Pub., written by our very own Jeff Barber, is an OUTSTANDING adventure set at >the bottom of the ocean.

If I >didn't have one of the GMs from that game in my BP game, I would have adapted >it long ago. Also, as I think I already mentioned, Grace Under Pressure can be adapted to a 'Space' scenario too without too much difficulty. Lots of CoC space stuff happening...
