Not everybody is proficient with 2-weapon combat. So if your thief is a straight thief, then he would suffer 2-weapon combat non-proficiency penalties. This would not invalidate his ability to apply sneak attack damage to both attacks. However, as in my own case, I have a soldier1/thief 1...

(OK, fine, screw it! I still can't seem to get quotes to work! Anyway....) This line of rationale only holds IF you get an "off-hand attack" while wielding a 2 handed weapon. I can't find anywhere (Conan or D&D SRD) that states a character wielding a 2 handed weapon also may use an "off-hand...

IF you decide to incorporate psionics into your Hyborian world, I would recommend not using the XPH specifically. It is way over the top on power level and scholars will shortly be a thing of the past. Use the 3.0 psionics instead. Because of their MAD (multiple attribute dependancy), they...
