Checking interest in Conan

[ynnswa]

I am working on the out-of-print Conan RPG from Mongoose for Hero Lab, and the core book (Atlantean Edition) is nearly done.

Looking through the forums, there's only been one post other than mine that even referenced the Conan game in a couple of years. So my question is this...how much interest is there in it being available to the Hero Lab community?

I would be happy to share it. All the mechanics work, but it isn't yet ready for "prime time". If there is still a good bit of community interest, then I'll write a help file to explain my workarounds and clean up the description formatting and such.

If no one cares, I'll make my game group suffer through it as is.

We would be happy to post the system when its complete.

Personally i havent played the Conan system. sorry about that.

I haven't played conan, however I have looked through the rule books in the past. As it's based upon the D20 system I vote for you to release the data into the community. Reason being even the unsupported systems get some loving from the HL community. It only takes a few players of Conan to notice a dataset available for them to use and generate word of mouth. More sales for HL = better support via community for Conan.

I've been playing Conan (2nd ed) for about a year now. Any additions would be great.

I hadn't thought of it that way. Thanks for the vote.

Awesome! When it is ready, I'd appreciate any feedback or bug reports. My group is testing it now, but I'm certain there will be a ton of little issues we'll miss.

Conan, Great

I would love to try it out when it's ready.My friend is going to start a game in like a month. He has had it like for 2 years and has decided to run it. Since the movie came out and it would be great to be able to use Herolab to make a character. I myself suck at programming.

I don't suppose this Conan dataset is still available? I'm about to get into a game of Conan 2e and think this would be a great plus.

Hi,
since we´re still playing based on the Conan system I would be interested in it too.

Regards

Hopefully this is still an active project? The group I play in has just started the Conan 2nd edition system and I'd be interested in this as well as the other 2 players I convinced to use HL for other systems.

Conan

I am currently using Hero lab for Pathfinder and would be very keen to use it for Conan 2nd edn also.

Thanks

Conan data pack

Sorry for the big absence. The mundane world demanded its due.

Anyway, the pack is available to anyone that wants it. We have been using it for our Conan games and haven't run into any major issues. I am no expert at this, but I think the system is pretty functional. If you are interested, it requires d20 3.5 for Hero Lab. It is two zip files. One is the Hero lab export for the system and is nearly 20mb. The second is the very simple custom character sheet and detailed "Read me" file for the system. It is tiny but important.

Anyone who wants the files can download them here.

Thanks for sharing it with us. I bet it wasn´t easy, Conan did some changes to 3.5.
Haven´t had the chance to test it but i´m eager to try it out.
