The legendary Ema has created a new character sheet for the Conan RPG! :) http://www.emass-web.com/

I've played the demo (learning scenario and Alexander The Great campaign) and while I like it, it seems like the heart and soul of what makes Age of Mythology so great is missing from Rise of Nations. By that, I mean, the emotional involvement you have with the various hero characters. Rise of...

Is the RTS PC game Rise Of Nations and its expansion pack, Thrones And Patriots, any good? It seems like a more complicated version of Age of Empires in both gameplay and interface, but the graphics aren't quite as sharp. I loved Age (esp. Age of Mythology/The Titans) but am leery of shelling...

The first one created that expectation that we would be getting a kick-ass action movie. For Tarantino to totally disregard the audience's expectations is criminal. Part 2 is nothing like Part 1, and therein lies the problem. You just can't shift gears like that. I didn't care about any of the...

Here's the problem with today's "B-movies": They aren't so bad they're good (as they were once upon a time back in Corman's heyday in the 50s/60s/70s). Now, they are so bad, they are BORING. Except SHARK ATTACK 3. That movie was so HILARIOUSLY BAD Sci-Fi refused to air it and sent it straight to...

Enterprise should have concentrated on the first contacts/Romulan war and should NEVER have attempted to do more of that same tired time travel nonsense that ruins so many Trek series episodes. Notice how much higher quality the two Andorian episodes of Enterprise are vs. everything else they've...

Roger Corman hasn't made anything good since the 1980s, people. His name attached to a project now is the cinematic kiss of death in my book, synonymous with crap perhaps slightly above the caliber of your average Full Moon movie. Dinocroc is going to be Dinocrap, can't you see that from...

I gave it a "3" only because of David Carradine (great comeback) and the sleazy Mexican whorehouse scene; otherwise, it was a "1". The first hour of this movie put me to sleep. The fight scenes sucked and the ending was anticlimactic. There was no point showing the endless B&W wedding crap if we...

According to French map creator Chrysagon, he has completed his giant FREE Hyborian Age world map for the Conan RPG. :cool: Here are the final versions of the Conan World Map: PRINTABLE VERSION http://chrysagon.free.fr/conan/Chrysagon_Hyboria_Complete.jpg WALLPAPER VERSIONS...

I loved Commander USA and his pal Lefty (he used his cigar butt to draw a face on his left hand for those of you not in the know). The shorts were great, but you forgot the one about the lady driver who picks up the hitchhiker and gets killed at a stoplight (in the rain?). The dummy in the...

My little sister was terrified of puppets, starting with "Smedley" on Candid Camera or whatever that show was in the mid-70s. He was a big, mute baby puppet that scared the hell out of her (she thought he was going to eat her alive!). Strangely enough, the Muppets and Sesame Street didn't bother...

Vampire Circus was good, but Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter (also by Hammer in the early 70s) was even better. The vampires in this movie sucked the YOUTH out of buxom young girls in the woods! It still holds up as a swashbuckling good time. Vampires fighting with swords long before Blade or Buffy!

JAWS, JAWS 2 and PIRANHA scared me, too. Wouldn't go near the water for years. The TV commercials for THE LEGACY scared me soooo bad as a kid I ran out of the house screaming in broad daylight like my pants were on fire. The part that freaked me out was when the lead actress goes to see her...

We thought ALIEN was gonna be like STAR WARS... Oops! :confused:

BUG was awesome!!! "WE LIVE" It was William Castle's last movie, if I recall correctly...

Now it does. :o http://chrysagon.free.fr/conan/Chrysagon_Hyboria_Complete.jpg

"The Children": about a schoolbus full of kids that passes through a toxic cloud. Their fingernails turn black and they want to hug you... which causes you to melt! A stupid, terrible movie now, but totally horrifying as a kid. "Night of the Living Dead" (1968 B&W version) gave me zombie...

Here's a new, revised version from the one I previously posted a link to. The cartographer keeps changing the file name with each new version, LOL, so here's his latest. Each new version is easier to read and more accurate! :cool: http://chrysagon.free.fr/conan/Chrysagon_Hyboria_Complete.jpg

The map creator is responding to Conan guru Vincent Darlage's concerns by updating his free giant map. New version is up, but there are still some corrections to be made (Khauran has no mountains, problems with Aquilonian/Pictish frontier, Paikang still too far north, Akbitania now placed in...

Me too!!!! :o
