[QUOTE="Mark CMG, post: 6410777, member: 10479"] As said by others, magnificent thread! I hope this bit of semi-related news fits your idea of what is allowed. If not, tag me in a post and I'll trim this back to just my praise for the thread. :) Are you familiar with Conan: Hyborian Quests (2015)? [url]http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/160010/conan-hyborian-quests[/url] Board Game Geek TV caught up with the publisher, Monolith Games, and checked out their prototype - [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfoKM9hdGz8[/url] Although this is going to be a boardgame (really a minis skirmish game), I thought I'd give a heads up about it because of the way it is structured. One person plays the opposition to one to four other players who play Conan and up to several companions. It might be fun just to have for killing time while other players arrive (60 minute game). It might be the scenarios will be fresh enough to lend themselves to borrowing for an RPG. It might be it'll have some figures that are the right size to paint and use for RPGing (the prototype makes that appear true). Last thing I read/heard this is well-along in playtesting and scheduled for Kickstarter in January with plans to have it all done by Gen Con 2015 for others beyond KS. It had been thought it would Kickstarter by Sept 2014 but that got pushed back so I'm not counting on other planned dates until I see them actually happen. [/QUOTE]
