Lankhmar - any good?

[Emirikol]

Have any of the prior or the new Mongoose Lankhmar products been any good?

Thougths on running a campaign there?

Is it lower-magic (please be)?

Do the books by Fritz leiber seem any good?

I picked it up the other day and am so far disappointed. The art and the maps aren't up to snuff.
I hope it improves with further reading.

I still wish they'd used the Conan d20 rules for this. It was a perfect fit!

Is it typical Mongoose? Slipshod and hurried?

I agree with the 3rd poster. THey've got the COnan rules, why not use them?

I kind of like Mongoose's new Runequest take and was kind of looking forward to this game... BUT I can't bring myself to picking it up... the cover art alone makes me want to cry... or kill someone I am not sure which

check it out on Amazon

Its like the early 80's all over again!!!

I think cause they also just got the Runequest OGL and they want to use it as much as possible right now

Well the cover looks kind of ugly, I must agree.

I'm actually still sitting on the fence about the whole MRQ line... opinions seem to be quite polarized.

Holy crap! That art is laughable nowadays.

The Leiber books are, of course, awesome.
