Bregales, as you pointed out, this article is not from Vincent, so I don't know whether it qualifies for being one of Argos & Zingara "deleted scenes". It is worth reading, anyway. And the stats can come handy for running quick matches for low level groups.

IIRC Hyboria's Finest had a Soldier/Borderer combo called Master Archer which can be what you want. I remember it to be a quite solid build with the bonus of being more of a "Hyborian Spec-Ops" archer than a line soldier. Also, IIRC, there were some suggestions as to which feats to take with...

I bought Argos & Zingara as a PDF from Drivethru. It did not have cover, and well, since I paid for a complete PDF book, I would like to have it as well, despite I have to admit I am mostly concerned by the fluff (otherwise I would never buy ebooks). Can anybody please tell me where does one...

Could someone (a playtester or simmilar) please tell me which were the detailed missing contents from Argos & Zingara? The book is quite cool, but it is obvious that lots of stuff were taken away. Anyway, I remember Vincent told me I would like the Zingaran swordplay section in one discussion...

As I've picked most of the sourcebooks from Mongoose d20 Conan version, I do not fear this conversion. I just hate it. First, consider the economic factor. Would you like to have to convert all your books to continue picking the Conan MRQ version? What if after a year they change from MRQ to...

Trodax wrote: Couldn't have been said more clearly. I tend to prefer classless/level-less systems, but levels and classes don't detract from the story in Conan d20 and now I am fond of the system and most sourcebooks so far. MRQ can kill the setting with its combat system. No larger than...

I have played Call of Cthulhu for a lot of time and, in fact, my favourite sourcebook for ANY game is Delta Green... ...however, this is despite BRP. Like I think Darrin, I am in the minority which thinks CoC d20 was in fact an improvement over BRP Cthulhu. Don't get me wrong, CoC is awesome...

Being swallowed should not be an advantage, and sure it hurts. Sneak attack from inside can be right from mechanics POV, but I feel it is somewhat odd. Just my 2 cents.

Thanks for the input! Now I'm figuring out how to mix these suggestions to make this fire thing all the more "funny" (for the Picts :twisted: :twisted: )

...to PCs deciding to set all of the Pictland ablaze. Last game I ran, PCs came up with such an idea after the Picts ravaged an outpost they wanted to defend (while they weren't there). As it stands, PCs thought setting the woods on fire so Picts wouldn't be able to use them for their...

Besides the previous suggestions... Undead do not suffer from Massive Damage :twisted: Neither do Constructs, nor Elementals. Though I would advice you to avoid the game to be too over the top. A 15th lvl cunning Sorcerer plus his evil plots and menacing allies could do.

Let's do the math: A 10th level Southern Islander (or Cimmerian) Barbarian can have a Str of 24. If you add Fighting Madness (not unlikely, as it's even a requisite for Savage Cleave) then you have an astounding 28 Str Class Berseker. If he uses a Bardiche or Greatsword he will do 2d10+13 per...

Hi, Last weekend, a player pointed to me the fact that a character with Great Cleave can waste 8 militia foes each round without making a sweat! While players are expected to be heroes and all that, I don't think a 7 lvl barbarian has the right to wipe out say thirty 1st lvl militia commoners...

Please, tell me when this is fixed. I thought they had solved the Fallen problem, but I misunderstood the message, in fact Mongoose said it was being solved. So until someone here says they have fixed this mess, I won't buy Tower nor anything which can be faulty. Note that I don't hate PDFs...

Just wanted to say I received a email yesterday telling me that the Hyboria's Fallen matter is solved (have to download yet, but hope there are no further surprises). throrII, you can try what I did. I used the direction for sales troubleshooting given in the Contact section in the mongoose.com...
