Hervé it would be great if Mongoose went to MRQ for their Conan line...not that they cover Conan very well but neverless it will aid someone running a Conan campaign. I really hope they go the MRQ route. My problem with Mongoose is they get into too much modern thought, strange sexual mores and politically correct nonsense that is not at all REH style Conan. Imagine how much better it would be if Chaosium did it. I'm sure some of it stems from the culture at Mongoose and the need to make it a OGL/D20 book. Meaning they need to dumb the background down for those used to simple group style DnD play. Perhaps the folks at Mongoose need to reread the books and stop trying to blend it with DnD, I only use them to fill in gaps that GURPS CONAN does not fill. Going to MRQ will do a lot to bring a more REH style to combat and characters and hopefully they will also try to better set the mood. In my own campaign we use a lot of Hyborian age elements in our Call of Cthulhu campaign so this could be really neat (new monsters,spells, etc) if MRQ is the key to Conan 2010.

Hi all, I too am an "Old school" gamer who has been playing since 1980. My main system is GURPS (3rd edition) but I'm also a big fan of Call of Cthulhu. I'm a store owner and an amateur gunsmith who lives with my wife, 2 dogs and a cat in the great state of Montana. My other interests include, medieval reenactment, hunting and firearms collecting.
