Today I read the Solomon Kane-story "Moon of Skulls" in the Delrey-edition.
The background is about a forgotten city in central Africa, that is a remnant of the Atlantean empire. The city wasn't destroyed in the cataclysm and could preserve high culture and imperial ambitions long years, but finally the original Atlanteans degenerated, mixed with their "Negro" slaves and were overthrown.
When Solomon Kane leaves at the end of the story, the last Atlantean is dead and the city is destroyed by an earthquake.
This means that the city is a real power in the Hyborian Age, settled by people which are blood brothers of the Cimmerians - in the deepest Kush / Southern Kingdoms!. Even the physical description of the Atlantean race fits the Cimmerian one in the Conan-stories.
See I an exciting adventure plot? Something original REHian, that for most players is new even if they know all Conan-stories of REH?
Would it be legally possible for Mongoose to produce such an adventure (Solomon Kane-license etc.)?
Besides: this isn't the only Solomon Kane-story taking place in Africa. GMs who are looking for ideas for Kushite adventures should go for Solomon Kane!
