[QUOTE="slygeek, post: 7708086, member: 100241"] I also use / used d20 Conan and its my favorite adaptation of the d20 rules BECAUSE of the maneuvers, AP/Armor rules etc. It just makes combat more fun. "To the Hilt!" comes to mind. Momentum and Doom is yet an additional layer of tools added that helps create more vivid battles. I'm not saying Sword & Sorcery needs "Doom" specifically, because there are other tools out there. Just look at Riddle of Steel and Blade of the Iron Throne (now that is fun, albeit crunchy combat!). But I am saying Sword & Sorcery absolutely needs tools to enhance your Combat Experience. I won't say anything against d20 Conan because I love that game, but it suffers all the drawbacks of d20 along with it. Which is why a fresh new system was a nice change. Sadly both systems are Clones and both don't quite mimmick Sword & Sorcery as well as a system designed from the ground up for that very purpose. Modiphius, I feel, are releasing a higher quality product then Mongoose did but they are both very different from eachother and both fine games in my eyes. But at least give it a try and don't let "Doom" make your decision for you. There is allot more to the game then just Doom points. [/QUOTE]
