Conan’s strengths lie in his left bicep and in his right bicep. And chest and stomach. And legs. OK, it was all over. Maybe not his hair though. He was a strength thief. As opposed to a agility thief.

Conan was a thief. And a barbarian. So did he multiclass? Or just go "give me all your stuff else I squeeze your head"? I think his backstab was just stabbing through the front to get to the back.

MERP (Middle-Earth Role Playing).

There was a time, when Fantasy Flight Games had the license, there was a POD of the 2E core book on drivethrurpg. Alas it is no longer available, probably gone when Cubicle 7 got the licence. I already had a core rulebook for 2E so decided on not getting one, but now regret not taking advantage...

Initial reaction would be to run Warhammer 4E. Maybe Warhammer The Old World for its simpler system. I’d also consider Legend in the Mist for a less grimdark game.

I have fond memories of MERP. I felt that it was a better game than Rolemaster (IIRC character creation was quite simple in comparison) and wished they had an expansion that carried on level progression past 10 rather than assuming people would pick up Rolemaster.

Son of Oak is creating a series of how to play videos on youtube - so far there are 3.

Since you mention PbtA, Metro:Otherscape has PbtA roots and is a fantasy cyberpunk roleplaying game that removed Moves from the system.

The C7 blog entry gives you an idea about what a Champion of Chaos is in the Age of Sigmar: Soulbound: It seems that the game may focus more on rebellion and revolution. https://cubicle7games.com/en_EU/blog/champions-of-chaos-cover-art-revealed

I think many people agree that WFRP 4E needs a revised core rulebook. From tidying up rules placement to using the updates found in supplements... and a rework of the bestiary that, from rumor, had bits cut out due to lack of space. As for a 5E I suspect that will be quite a few years out since...

Yes, I pre-ordered The One Ring - Over Hill and Under Hill Starter Set July 9th. And it was delivered over one week ago.

I didn’t realise it was initially funded via crowdfunding. I understand the backer sentiments regarding delivery versus availability for non-backers.

Here is a link that has a suggested retail price of $134.95. But clicking the buy button will have the same result as you found - not available on the warehouse23 online store. https://munchkin.game/products/games/munchkin/munchkin-big-box/

Yeah, but the first Starter Set didn't end with the hobbits fleeing the Shire being chased by 9 undead riders. My criticism is that there wasn't a good mix of heroic cultures. This new Starter Set fixes this for me.
