So I'm looking for some help from the Conan fans here who have either played the game extensively or are currently in a game/campaign.
Hi
we play Conan with GURPS 4 and it is very Conanesque
. Fights are fast and deadly, The Players can be very heroic, though they know that they may suffer badly when seriously wounded. Of course, fights are GURPS style: f.i. last saturday, the barbarian first hit the leg of the giant ape, brought him to his knees, and than stabbed him in his vitals, killing him nearly instantly - while the pirate lied near a wall, bleeding, having caught the first hit of the ape.
Technically, the Character Classes are easily transferred to GURPS - we have a cimmerian barbarian, an argossian pirate and my girlfriend plays a sadistic, bloodlusty pictish warrior
GURPS Conan is of course a big help, though it is still GURPS 3.
I haven't tried to convert "big" wizards now, but I don't think that will cause any serious problems - GURPS 4 Magic is quite complete, I think.
