[QUOTE="topdogg, post: 3960453, member: 54812"] Thanks for your lengthy response, good feedback. Yes, I did a print to PDF. I'll look into the compression options. I guess you have a point there, although I suspect there are a number of "closet fans" of Conan, even at ENWorld. So let me just take the opportunity to sell you on the game. It fixes a lot of the problems I have with D&D (3E as well as other editions). The rules really support gaming in the style of the swords and sorcery novels which inspired the D&D game in the first place (not like the modern dungeonpunk, which, as far as I can see, is only getting worse in 4E). Combat is brutal and deadly (and therefore fast). Magic is toned down, it is not a replacement for technology, and skills are actually important in this game (because you don't have spells and magic items that duplicate [or are better than] skills). However, the system is still d20, so it's easy to convert monsters and other rules from other settings. There's a brief comparison of the rules here: [url]http://www.yandros.com/RPG/Conan/ConanRPGvsDnD.htm[/url] And a review here: [url]http://www.rpg.net/reviews/archive/10/10174.phtml[/url] So, even if it's not your cup of tea, you might want to take a look (or should I say sip... :-) No, this is an unauthorized conversion, although the past and current copyright holders are duly attributed. It is a fan work, a tribute, and I'm not trying to make money from it. I realize that doesn't give me any more rights to use the material, but hopefully the involved parties will accept it for what it is. As you say, it's something of a niche "product", and after all, it can only serve to generate more interest in the original (and the Conan game). That should be a win-win for everyone involved. If any of the copyright holders disagree, please contact me privately (contact details on website) and ask me to remove the file. - thulsa [/QUOTE]
