Speaking of Conan, my Conan the Conqueror pledge turned up.
It's not just Agon, it's an OSR cut of Agon. I'm sure I can manage. I'm going to play a fighter and run that shit 'til the wheels fall off.
Wasn't that KS concluded like 5 years ago?
No, that’s the newer Conqueror Kickstarter. It included options to get stuff from the original KS too.
As CRK says, Conan the Conqueror is an expansion to the original game, with solo/coop mode and lots of new stuff, including a Kull mini-expansion.
Oh that's right. My heart wanted to go all in on that as I only have the base set I bought for about $40 and it seemed cool but the fact I've never got it to the table made the all in price seem insane. Sad heart. Happy wallet
I found a similar deal on ebay recently. I wonder if Buffy's cachet is dropping with its creators, who seems to know how to pile a garbage fire on top of a shitshow.
It does seem like folks keep saying "Hold my beer!" When challenged with "They couldn't be that stupid could they?"
It’s good. It has a slightly high bar of entry which was weird as it was a subsequent iteration, but ultimately it’s solid. A little less combat orientated than Conan and more objective focussed.
Wow, that's a great deal! I own the Army of Darkness and Angel books but none of the Buffy stuff. They're fun and versatile games. I believe Ghosts of Albion can still be picked up in print-on-demand through DriveThruRPG.
I have two stories about playtesting that book, buy I believe the Yahoo Groups for playtesters is long gone, so I can’t dredge up the one e-mail that would be needed to prove the “You Gotta Be Shitting Me!” moment of one of my stories.
Don't know if you saw his latest:
I don't keep up with any of it. I just watch the movies and either like them or not. But I have enjoyed seeing Cyborg in Doom Patrol.
Which edition? The first edition was great but I’m less convinced about the second.
The rules set is actually Ruins of Doom, which is based on Agon 1E, I think. I have Agon 2E.
Oooh.. good burn!
Anoint someone jointly as Pop Culture Jesus and a Feminist Icon and have fans wear shirts saying "Joss Whedon is My Master Now"...what could possibly go wrong? Oh, what happens every single time you mean?
The ZSJL did SO well, that AT&T tossed WB to Discovery and have let go Snyder from all projects, to the point of having the next Flash film to erase Snyder's vision.
So, I failed my saving throw after the third email from eBay mentioning this damn sale and snagged the two of each box set. It didn't help that when I mentioned it to my wife she replied with," you know you'll be pissed if you miss out on this, get it!"
Most of those are additional scenarios and figures. I think the base game is 90-120 minute if I remember right.
Good sir, can you tell me more about this miniature game and how to get it?I know I posted my new stuff above, but having got all my Conan stuff out, I feel compelled to share another photo.
It’s a lot but this is the only big box miniature game KS I have backed. It’s sort of a release valve for every other KS of this type and it has worked for the last 5 years. So I see it as having saved money in the long run

Most games are 45 to 90 minutes. It plays quick and fast, which is one reason I like it so much.
That's ... not what it says. A lot of people want it to say that, but it doesn't. And in all honesty, I don't care, as that had very little to do with my point. I was just saying that there was more to Cyborg's story, so not really sure where that response came into it.
It’s mostly sold via KS of which the second is just fulfilling now. There were copies of the Corebox sold in retail and that was great value FWIW.
Cool, can anyone give me a hot take of that system?
