    Conan RPG Point Buy Stat Generation in 1st edition

    You're right. I didn't consider the heroic creation system, since I don't use it in my game (well I do for some NPCs, but I roll the stats for them). Who wants their players to be heroes instead of low-lifes that hold on to their dear live when they are going out adventuring anyway? :twisted: I...

    Conan RPG Point Buy Stat Generation in 1st edition

    D&D uses the same way to generate the original stat scores (4W6, use the best dice) as Conan, so the system in the DMG guide is pretty balanced for Conan as well, if you ask me. I'm very curious about the stat point buy system in Conan 2nd edition.

    "Buy the numbers" and Conan D20

    I'm not such a big fan of the system since costs don't scale. Raising an ability always costs the same amount of points no matter what for example. I would like a system where it's actually more expensive to raise an ability depending on how high it is currently. It's cool system for a...

    Making up NPCs.

    I really love making up NPCs, but mostly only their personality and origin. Making character sheets is usually very tedious, though. I only write down stats for NPCs that are reoccuring and important to the overall campaign. The main ally of the group or the main enemy for example. For other...

    "Buy the numbers" and Conan D20

    Well, I think I would first start to recreate let's say the Barbarian class without the abilities and feats that are unique to Conan up to Level 20. After that I would look how many XP there would be left under the Buy the Numbers System. I would assign an XP value to the missing special...

    "Buy the numbers" and Conan D20

    Thanks for the welcome, Yogah. I haven't really read the book myself, like I've already stated, but I think I can basically tell you how the system works. Ability Scores. Base Attack Bonus, Hit Points, Saving Throw Bonuses, Defensive Abilities, existing class specific traits, Feats and Skills...

    "Buy the numbers" and Conan D20

    Does anyone of you have the D20 supplement book "Buy the numbers" from S.T. Cooley Publishing? If so, what is your experience with it? How difficult is it to adapt the Conan RPG to this classless and level free system? Have you ever tried to adapt "Buy the numbers" to your Conan game? If so, how...
