Hello everibody, i thought that acquatic location markers could be used in Dunwich too, for example in the Cold Spring Glen and in the Bishop's Brook Bridge. What do you think about? It's time for an house rule??

I put them on Rivertown (Riverton?) streets and Merchant district streets. The river flows right along them. Sometimes they get flooded and strange items are left in the wake.

Bishop's Brook bridge is a good idea though since that puts one in Dunwich. But a problem is that the bridge's brook water is fresh water which my insane sense of reality wouldn't allow. Even more so the spring water in Cold Spring glen.

I don't know if this is the inspiration for it. It's apparently near John Bishop's house.

The Mill Brook Bridge, the oldest known free-standing stone arch bridge, is approximately at the junction of Blissville Road and Mill Brook Road, just north of the present bridge that spans the brook. The stonework is typical of the dry-laid fieldstone masonry of the period. It was built for the stagecoach route used for the U. S. Mail between New York and Boston.

Since I rarely play Innsmouth and Dunwich together...if I play Dunwich, I do exactly as Lorenzo does, and if I play Innsmouth, I do exactly as Mageith does.

Somebody on this forum, at one point or another, pointed out that Lovecraft's Dunwich is emphatically not an aquatic area. Bishops Brook Bridge and Cold Spring Glen probably amount to no more than a creek with a pond on the end. Whoever stated that opinion seemed to imply that the deep ones would hardly want to go there, even if there was a direct route.

That said, do feel free to place them wherever you like. I'm more inclined to point towards street locations, as that increases the chance for an aquatic movement. To this end, how about the Village Commons Streets? That way, more monsters get drawn to Dunwich, and you must deal with them, or you can tactically draw the monsters away by camping on an aquatic location.
