I usually find casting "Draw forth the Heart" works really well... ;)

You're not the only one that feels the same way. I too have a bit of a problem with the way weapon proficiency works in D20. Especially since in Conan RPG the PCs shouldn't get too confortable with a weapon of choice, as they may wake up without it one day. The only major problem with what you...

The way D20 is written, yeah, it's up to the GM. A morale check would be nice, but how do you go about figuring out the DC? I guess you would use Wisdom for the check. But like Vincent said, it would be easier to implement GM fiat.

very nice indeed !!!

A book of small adventures would be a great idea; really fits with REH's writings. Some more region bookswould be nice too: The North, Turan/Hyrkania, Central Hyboria, etc. A revised "Magic" book would be nice. Even though the spells in Conan RPG do not have levels like in D20, they sort of do...

I also subscribe to Krushnak's idea. When I ran my campaign I made a player make a corruption save for the following: - performing a successful heal check on a dying man - questioning that man - then killing him after the questioning was done, as he wasn't necessary anymore (leave no witnesses...

1. It should be -2 per range increment past the 1st. So, -2 at 2nd increment, -4 at 3rd, etc. 2. Yup. If you are using large groups of NPC you might not want to though as this might slow down the game; on the other hand, if there are that many mooks and the PCs are wading through them, a Crit...

1. I tried reading Conan the Buccaneer; sorry, couldn't do it, really bad. 2. I wouldn't consider Tolkien a S&S writer; even though Middle Earth is somewhat of a Low-Magic world, his writing on the other hand doesn't capture the same feel that Howard or Lieber did. Better said, Tolkien's Heroes...

I1 - Dwellers of Forbidden City I used to own this back in the 1st ed. days; I picked up a copy a little while back on eBay. With a little work it would fit in nicely; An isolated valley somewhere in the Black Kingdoms, a ruined city, Set worshipping snake-men (Yuan-Ti), prehistoric creatures...

Thank you Vincent, you do a great service to the works of REH.

I made a Word document that included a list of maneuvers a while back. Neither list is complete, but most of the work is done. If anyone could update it, I would appreciate it. http://www.myfilestash.com/userfiles/urdinaran/Conan%20Feats%20List.doc

Sneak attack is fine the way it is; by taking it away you hamstring the Thief and Pirate classes. You think it's bad, try 1st level Zingaran Thief w/ Light-Footed (that's 3d6 sneak attack minimum, not including style). As for slitting someones throat, the D20 rules aren't realistic in alot of...

Here it is: Summon Essence: 5 PP per jar of blood; each jar creates 1 ghoul, 1 jar per Scholar level Prerequisites: Raise Corpse, MAB +2 Duration: MAB set duration in HOURS These ghouls can turn incorporeal, and they can function as spies or guards !!!
