[QUOTE="Water Bob, post: 7123304, member: 92305"] [B]RUNNING GAMES IN ARGOS[/B] This is a list of quick notes aimed at helping a GM run games in the kingdom of Argos. [B]ARGOS, THE MARITIME KINGDOM[/B] -- Hyborian kingdom. Many natural sea ports. About 7 million people today. Grew out of the ashes of Acheron that fell 3,000 years ago. Lots of ruins. Settled by the Bori tribes. Very cosmopolitan, and the Hyborian blood is becoming so diluted that many scholars do not consider the kingdom to be a Hyborian nation any longer. -- Much of the 2011 movie, Conan The Barbarian, is set in coastal Zingara, Messantia and other spots in Argos, and northeastern Shem. The film can serve a depictions of terrain and such. -- Known for master seamen, crafty pirates, and powerful merchantmen. -- Large cities dominate the coast. Messantia, the capital, is the largest. Cities bustle with trade, both by sea and land. People are extremely cosmopolitan and liberal. -- Interior Argos is populated by traditional, feudal folk. Conservative values. Farmers, craftsmen, and laborers. Fields and villages. Baronies. Well maintained roads lined with trees. Peaceful, friendly people, even toward strangers. Almost every town has an inn. Common to see merchants with trade goods on the roads. Long caravans on the wide trade roads. -- Extremely wealthy kingdom. Often hires mercenaries to fight its wars. Keeps multiple small soldier units as opposed to large armies. -- Thick with spies, diplomats, and assassins that engage in intrigue and subterfuge within Argos itself and other kingdoms. [/QUOTE]
