The Road of Kings

[Yokiboy]

Is there any place where I can find some more info regarding The Road of Kings, except for the blurb on Mongoose's Conan web site?

What will it actually contain? Here's a list of things I'm hoping to find in the book, regarding the different regions/races/cultures:

Height and weight generation guidelines for each race
Regional calendars *
Weather, winds and air pressure patterns
Common trade routes
Ocean currents
Industry, grain production, cattle/fishing (how each region supports itself)

* Note: in the old TSR Conan game, they claim that there was a pretty universal Hyborian calendar.

I am of course also hoping for a whole ton of great REH flavor. Just heap it on Vincent!

What would the rest of you like to see in the book? What information would you just love over all else?

TTFN,

Yokiboy

I want more RoK info too, but got zero response when I asked this same question a month or two back. They're being tight-lipped about it...

I don't get why?! They could at least share with us what the book is about. The blurb they have posted now is just a bunch of flavor text that doesn't tell what to expect crunch- or flavor-wise. :?

Any Mongeese around? :wink:

We'd like to have a reason to be pumped up over one of your upcoming releases, care to help?

I chalk up any non-responsiveness as:
(1) they are busy working on the product, and
(2) they don't want a bunch of nitpicking on their product before it's even released, because somebody feels they left out something

Nah, that would never happen. Us nitpick - never! :lol:
