High Crusade!

Submitter: Cambias
Description: It's the year 1270, with one small difference. The Elder Things of Antarctica have decided to clear the Solar System of hostile Eldritch Horrors. Naturally, they can't do the job themselves, so they've enlisted the aid of some of the evolved monkey-creatures of Earth's land surface. A group called the Knights of the Temple. The Templars now have a launch facility in Prester John's kingdom of Ethiopia, and bold knights venture forth to Venus, Mars, and Yuggoth to pit faith and steel against magic and madness!
