Yeah, that was my point. RPGs based on one movie or video game tend to be kinda poor, imo, as, most of the time, it only repeats what's in the original source. That's why I'd favor a RPG inspired from several movies, with its own "feeling" and universe (the evil corp doesn't need to be called "Umbre...

Well, if you add the proto-cyberpunk/survival horror flavour to it, it gets interesting...

I don't think Undeworld would make such a nice RPG setting. There is not much to see in this universe besides what it shown in the movies and most of it is blasted to shred at the end of Evolution. Some elements of it are just plain stupid, IMO, and would discourage mature gamers. However, a vampire...

Koski forgot one of the best parts : no f***ing alignments !

Besides, you can drop all the rules you don't like. I never used armor and weapon damage.

EDIT : realism ? yeah, right !

The Kingdom of Jerusalem would make a nice setting : uneasy cohabitation of people of various religions and cultures, diplomacy with the Muslims and the Byzantines, rebellous barons, etc.

I never read or played Al Qadim but I'm very interested in an Arabian Nights RPG setting.

Excellent... I could use such a NPC

I would buy it.

Well, it ceases to be a distraction once you get used to it.

And, as a matter of fact, if the right pages depict a bare-chested male, I want a bare-chested female on the left. Gender equality and so on.

I will continue to buy the regional sourcebooks, the (possible) thematic sourcebooks and, y'know, that big campaign we're waiting for. But I don't need another corebook. I've used the current game system so far, adding the (few) houserules I needed and dropping the (many) rules I didn't. So, the sys...

I bought the 3 F books and have found no use for them. Maybe if you are a rules addict...

Great !

All of the Conan books, as most here will attest to, are exemplary -- in my opinion some of the best gaming books any company has produced. So no worries that you'll end up with a 'bad book.' But you could end up with a book which doesn't fit your style of gaming. As an example, Ruins of Hyboria is...

A big, high-level campaign, would be nice. WHR had the Imperial Campaign, Coc had the Masks. Why isn't there any equivalent for Conan ?

I didn't buy Tito's and don't plan to.

Besides the MRB, Scrolls of Skelos and Road of Kings, there's no absolute must-buy in this line.

Bare breasted babes are needed as a tribute to REH

I support that (well, not the Darfari part. Eating people is rude).

When I'm finished with you, what will be left of you will fit in a squirrel's stomach.

If you read French, there's a guy who wrote a free Dune RPG. It is a lot better than the one of Last Unicorn, I think (and it's free) : http://storygame.free.fr/imperium/

Well, I'm to young to remember Car Wars but people keep talking about it. I would certainly buy a game of this kind.
