Notes on This Edition
A 128-page squarebound book, plus "r" sheets of handouts, plus two foldout sheets depicting contemporary weapons. The Sandy Petersen material from this book (new equipment, weapons, hit locations) and reprinted in The 1990's Handbook, but that book has so much other, new equipment (and ignores everything else form Cthulhu Now) that it's properly an entirely new release.
