Not sure if the posters are into it, but here's a video from the game. ftp://ftp.funcom.com/media/Age_of_Conan/Conan_Trailer_E3_2006_iPod.mp4

Great write up, subtle humor, and lots of enthusiasm. This sure was a motivator to me.

Good post, and something to think about. I believe a lot of the problem comes from the need to scale encounters in DnD to throw tougher monsters at the PCs, and that Conan players usually played DnD in the past so it's a habit to break. A previous poster noted that in DnD after level 1 you never...

There was Feng Shui and Hong Kong Action Theater; both were fun kung fu games. Thanks for the mention, brings back some memories. For my games I try and give free reign to my players. It sucks sometimes when they don't "take the bait", but I can usually recycle, reuse, adventures/NPCs they...

Ahhh, thanks for clearing that up, it makes sense to me now. We've only played about 5 sessions, and some of the stuff is a little bit foggy still. We do add our str to the damage though, with a finesse attack? Yes? Thanks!

Excellent responses, and thank you this helps a lot. :D

Levels of the PCs were 1, the mercenaries were taken from level 1 soldier NPCs from the download. They only had daggers because they were slaves... and were fighting to escape. What they had was what they could take off their guards. So wielding a weapon with 2 hands = 1.5 times str for...

Hello again, fair scholars and barbarians! Once again I have questions from the rules, please help me, as we are set (Set?) to play on Wednesday once again. 1) Armor: DR vs. armor piercing. During the last game we played the players found themselves battling some mercenaries who were armored...

I hope you don't think CoC is a relic for a game system? The non-D20 system was one of the best RP games I've ever played. =/

Thanks RMS, runequest sounds like an interesting system too...
