Originally, it was print only, but eventually it switched to a free digital download. You can find tons of articles devoted to the Conan RPG by downloading these mags (it's free on the Mongoose site). The original print stuff is not available for free, but fret not, as just about all of that material has found its way into official Conan supplements. So...what kind of stuff can you get out of S&P? I'll tell you... [b]CHARACTER RACES[/b] -- Sample Aquilonian names. -- New Race: Iranistani -- New Race: Acheronians. -- Hyrkanian race explored over several articles. -- New Race: Saami -- Pygmies of the Hyborian Age [b]CHARACTER CLASSES[/b] -- New Thief Sneak Attack Styles -- New Borderer Combat Styles -- New Class: Healer -- New Class: Gladiator -- New Class: Martial Disciple -- Discussion on Noble Followers [b]EQUIPMENT[/b] -- Daggers from specific regions of the world -- Thief Equipment [b]COMBAT[/b] -- Chariot Combat Rules [b]SORCERY[/b] -- Several articles bringing new Spells to the game [b]LOCATIONS[/b] -- Barachan Isles (mentioned in Robert E.

Some of these are quite in depth, "ecology" type articles. [b]ADVENTURE[/b] -- Multiple adventures, for various character levels, set all over the world. Some of these are just adventure ideas. Many are fully fleshed out adventures. Included is Eric Rodriquez's expansive (runs about 30 pages) low-level adventure that was originally slated to be published as an official adventure before Mongoose stopped producing Conan RPG products, [b]To Save A Kingdom[/b]. Some are set in locations from the Conan stories. The adventures are the largest portion of the S&P articles. [b]OTHER TOPICS[/b] -- Gambling Rules -- The Ark of Delight, a floating bordello.
