As soon as I read these rules, I knew they would be perfect for Conan gaming. I had hoped Ghost Archipelago would do the trick, but Rangers hit the mark. Used 16 build pts to buff Conan properly, Belit is another normal style ranger, and they pay for the extra points by having fewer companions. Played like a dream! Suitable tension and attrition losses, and fine heroic finish. Temple by Christopher 'Set' Cotillard, mat by Cigar Box, Belit from Dark Fable, and Conan from Copplestone via North Star's Frostgrave/GA, and title shamelessly stolen from Alex Bates and Forge of Ice. You'll see why next time!

Final duel with the Gorilla King! What does our hero find in the temple? Where has the body of Belit gone? Stay tuned for Part 2!

Nice report and really cool gaming table;).

Did you use rules from rangers for your enemies or did your make your own stats for them?

Crom!

Those rules, I must have.

I used apes as gnolls, giant ape as ogre, and adapted the events table from an episode in the book, tweaked to fit my scenario.

Thanks for the info =).

If you have Frostgrave and Ghost Archipelago, you could use the creatures from there. They should have the same stats. You only have to assign them some skills, if they need some.

Plenty to choose from! Next episode coming soon!

Can we see the stats for Conan and Belît?

Yes please, give us your profiles of Conan and Belit. Now that my wife is asking me for cooperative games and she is reading Dark Horse Conan comics, this seems perfect for us.

Look great! The rules also sound very interesting, have you played Sellswords & Spellslingers? I'd be interested in how they differ, especially as regards monster actions...

I just buffed them until they felt right, and I kept a loose count of points spent. Those of a more competitive nature may check my numbers and find fault, if they were so inclined!

Conan
M7 F +4 S+3 Arm 10 W+4 H 20 7pts spent
Abilities
Dash, Deadly Strike. Evade, Frenzied Attack, Powerful Blow, Shove 6 points spent
Skills
Acrobatics +4. Climb +4, Perception +4, Strength +4, Survival +4, Swim +2, Track +2 3 pts spent

Basically he is a one-man Ranger team!

Belit
M7 F+3 S +1 Arm 10 W+4 H19
Abilities
Dash, Deadly Strike, Distraction, Evade, Hand of Fate
Skills
Acrobatics +2, Leadership +2, Navigation +2, Stealth +2

Companions were a Man-at-Arms, a tracker, a Savage, and a Barbarian.

Adjust according to who you want them to be, and off you go! I think the game is a wonderful toolbox to build just about anything adventure-wise you could want, with a little imagination!

Haven't played them, though there were on the list at one point. Game reports I've read looked pretty good, but not quite what I wanted. Maybe better for a dungeon crawl?
