Is it me, or did the Argosseans get shorted on the race abilities?
How so? As a sub-race of Hyborian, they get all the Hyborian traits (adaptability, weapon familiarity, fate point bonus), PLUS a racial bonus to four skills.
The only thing they don't get is the choice of background skills, and they lose the ability to have any class as a favoured class (pirate is their default favoured class). This offsets the racial bonus to skills (and with Conan's emphasis on skills, that is a heck of an enhancement, especially if you combine adaptability with those background skills (circumstance and racial bonuses stack).
