Robert E. Howard's Conan AMA With Jason Durall & Chris Lites

[jdurall]

We should have an interesting bit of news in the days to come...

 

[Prickly]

One of the add-ons for the kickstarter is a hit location die. Does this version of the 2d20 use hit locations?

Yes, it does, but for the quickstart we decided to keep things a bit simpler.

 

[Prickly]

Will there be the option not to use hit locations?

Second questions: Any chance of a Day After Ragnarok book for Conan

Will there be the option not to use hit locations?

Right now it's the default, and it would require a complete rework of the armor system to ignore them.

From one of our system engineers:

Armour works very differently without them. At the moment, in each fight if you take a hit to a location and take an injury you can burn the armour to avoid the injury. Take away hit locations and you'd lose all your armour in a one-roll.

No plans on this. That IP is owned by Atomic Overmind (IIRC) and while it is cool, it's not something we have any rights to do.

Oh, I like this idea....

Just a quick note to point out that the Hoard of Yezdigerd and Secrets of Mount Yishma [sic] pledge levels now include print subscriptions as well as PDF subscriptions... meaning that you'll get a print copy of every book released in the two years following the release of the core rulebook.

Those pledge-level prices (which haven't changed) are looking better and better.
