Hail!
I'm usually a lurking on the Conan boards, but recently stumbled across this OGL Ancients game. I've read a few reviews, and it looks my cup of tea, so to speak. I've a few questions before running off to order, though.
1. Are the rules much more complex than the standard D20? I find them rather clunky at times, and having read that combat is now done in three, rather than one roll, I'm a little apprehensive. The last thing I want is to shelf the game simply because I'm intimidated with the amount of rules to remember.
2. Are there any supplements to OGL Ancients either on the shelves or in the works? I've looked around and can't find a thing, which is somewhat surprising, really. No sign of this OGL Rome sourcebook I've heard you guys talk about? Or what about a Viking supplement. Admittedly, there are a few thousand years apart, but the emphasis on mythology and epic heroes is surely the same.
3. Any other points I need to know about?
Thanks in Advance for any help or advice offered!
