[QUOTE="Water Bob, post: 6110080, member: 92305"] @[I][B][U][URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/member.php?u=14291"]Azgulor[/URL][/U][/B][/I] I've had another thought on this... Continuing what I said above about GMing the Conan RPG in a "PG" style, you might consider using the [URL="http://www.amazon.com/The-Chronicles-Conan-Vol-Elephant/dp/1593070160/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1364625702&sr=8-1&keywords=Chronicles+of+Conan"]Chronicles of Conan[/URL] comic as your source material. These were originally published by Marvel back in the 70's, and they manage to capture the Hyborian Age, in a "PG" fashion, quite well. I enjoy reading them, even at my old age (shsssh! Don't tell anyone!). Book 2 is better than Book 1, and starting with Book 3, the quality is really there (I found parts of Book 1 an effort to get through, but I read it to learn the beginning). These books are a gold mine for your game. They'll give you characters, situations, and stories--maybe even act as visuals for your game. All you have to do, as GM, is apply stats to them. They're ready-made adventures! Just add water--I mean, stats! And...they're all suitable for your kids as you allow them to live out Conan's adventures. Remember Marvel's target audience. This could be a wonderful way to go. Your kids get to experience Conan, and you get the pleasure of adapting the comics to the game (I enjoy that kind of stuff). Just a thought, for you. [IMG]http://arthursbookshelf.com/sci-fi/howard/The%20Tower%20of%20the%20Elephant.jpg[/IMG] The other option is to just keep your Pathfinder rules but play during the Hyborian Age. Still get the Chronicles of Conan trade paperback, but apply your Pathfinder rules to the adventures you create instead of using the Mongoose Conan rules. You might want to look at some of the links I posted earlier in the thread that show other d20 game versions adapted to the Hyborian Age. [/QUOTE]
