Things needed to play Conan:
1. Main rulebook with rules for character creation, combat, etc. - done
2. Setting to play in - done in main book and Road of Kings?
3. NPCs and monsters to interact and do battle with - hmmm, seems missing from the descriptions I have seen thus far.
To me, the 3 things above are the main essentials necessary to play the game. I might be able to get by with the main rulebook (which I understand has some setting info) and monster stats, but from everything I've read, it seems as if we are missing the monster stats. A really good book to put together would be one that included NPC and monster stats - might not be very big, but it should include regular animals as well as monsters, NPCs, extinct beasts (see thread on conan.com regarding sabertooth tigers, mastodons, aurochs, etc.). I think this is essential for game play. To what extent does the main rulebook include stats for anything - characters, monsters, or animals?
