Sword Brethen, We did it! Once again, you answered the call of the battle horn and mustered your forces! Once again, you fought bravely during these 14 days, without wavering, without hesitating. Once again, you stand proudly tall, as those who wanted us slain lay flat in a pool of their own blood. Thank you for your support during this hard-fought campaign, and over all these years. Without you, the Monolith would not be what it is today! Knocking down the Stretch Goals one by one must have made your arms numb. You can now have yourself a cold tankard full of ale, and take a much-needed rest now that you have utterly destroyed the last Stretch Goal of this campaign! A unit of 5 Crossbowmen and 2 Activation tiles will be added to the Versus Mode Expansion to broaden your recruitment options. Victory is sweet, and we will celebrate! But we also have to keep our minds focused on what’s to come. For us, it is finalizing the few printed components (mainly proofreading) to start production as soon as possible, and starting work on the digital scenarios we added during this campaign. For you, it is keeping an eye on your email inbox for the invitation to the Pledge Manager on Gamefound that will open at the end of February and remain open for 2 months. We remind you that the Pledge Manager is a crucial step for you to receive your pledge. Of course, we will also keep you posted on the exact day the Pledge Manager will open through updates in this campaign. Until then, raise your cup with us, and hail Conan! And see you in a few months after the delivery of Mythic Battles: Ragnarök, for new adventures in the devastated Greece, in the Nine Worlds, or in the sands of the Two Lands! The Monolith Team.

Sword Brethen, We can now add 2 more scenarios in the Versus Mode than will take us to the depth of the green Jungle and into the maze of the city of Xuchotl. And the 26 new Equipment cards will make great additions to the Red Nails scenarios we have to come up with, and those you will undoubtedly create. For our next Stretch Goal, we meet old acquaintances with the return of the Crossbowmen!

Publié par Adnane janv. 28, 2024 Afficher sur Kickstarter The king of the heather had been warned: invoking the Worms of the Earth would bring only darkness and ruin. But to protect his people–to spit back in the eye of Rome–what else was Bran Mak Morn to do? Having lost his grip on the Black Stone, he no longer held dominion over the burrowing, subterranean fiends. Now a rumor suggests the Worms have a new master–a vile sorcerer who commands the dead as well as these horrors of a lost epoch. Bran knows he must again appeal to these creatures to keep Roman legions out of his lands, and to do so, requires the Black Stone. With the repulsive witch, Atla, at his side, as well as two trusted warriors, he must return to Dagon’s Mere, secure the stone, and send this necromancer screaming to the depths of Hell! Sword Brethren, Thus begins the first scenario in our three-part campaign, dedicated to a lesser known barbarian king. No, not Kull. Howard’s other barbarian king. I’ve long wondered what happened to Bran Mak Morn after the events of Howard’s ‘Worms of the Earth’. As someone who’s gone on record several times (on the Rogues in the House Podcast), saying that WotE is my favorite of Howard’s yarns, I couldn’t resist the temptation to bring Bran Mak Morn into the best Conan game on the market. Art by Carlos Amaral. That said, I’m not a huge fan of direct adaptation, preferring instead to adopt the vibe, aesthetic, and characters, but push them forward to places players might not expect. I should probably reveal, then, that this expansion serves as a sequel to Worms of the Earth and is not an emulation or adaptation of the original story first published in Weird Tales in 1932. I believe these 3 scenarios: The Black Stone, The Grim Altar, and Back to the Earthcapture the bleak themes and bloody consequences of Howard’s horrific tale of a king who’s run out of options. Art by Carlos Amaral. I also wanted to keep this expansion small, so the price could remain low. To me, this add-on feels like a gamble. Everyone knows who Conan is, and will be tempted by the offerings dedicated to him and his world–but perhaps a reasonably priced expansion could draw fresh eyes to Howard’s other works. And so, I encourage you, fellow gamers, to give this one a chance. I decided early-on that this add-on should have a low entry fee. All you need is the Core Conan game and the Stretch Goal box. That meant making some creative choices which would invoke a wholly different setting, one of Roman expansion. In the scenarios you’ll find Picts, a fortress, mercenaries, a swamp, and foreboding ruins. 4 new character sheets represent Bran Mak Morn, the witch Atla, and two of Bran’s most trusted warriors, Picts named Othna and Grom, which utilize the Pict Warrior and Pict Archer minis. While we don’t have any Roman troops–again we wanted to keep the price low–I have found some creative ways to make this expansion feel like it should. Take for example Commander Drusus. His art and miniature looks akin to a Spartan warrior. Though that isn’t exactly Roman, it’s in the ballpark and his aesthetic seems to fit with the setting of this story, especially since the armor he’s wearing is from a long-dead Spartan king. The 3 scenarios in the booklet create a narrative whole, which includes progressive elements like our other Solo/Coop campaigns. If Solo/co-op play is your jam, I believe this little expansion will add a lot in a small package. Besides, who doesn’t want to use Bran Mak Morn’s Hero sheet in other solo/co-op campaigns?! Keep your swords sharp! Matthew John

Sword Brethen, The fight was tense, and could have gone either way, but Tolkemec went down, truly slain at last! Sculpt by Olivier Bouchet Next up, we wanted to emphasize the dynamic between the Red Nails and Versus expansions by adding the maps for the first into the latter, with, of course, 2 scenarios to let you fight on these brand new battlegrounds. We have also decided to sweeten the pot by adding 26 new Equipment cards. These new cards will give even more creative freedom for scenario creators, starting with the digital scenario for Red Nails we have yet to write.
-
Sword Brethen, You made your voice heard loud and clear! We have received more than 1,100 votes and here are the winners. This 2-scenario campaign will be Solo/Coop and will take place in the Jungle and the Swamp maps! The theme of the campaign is not set yet, so we might come back in a future update to ask for your vote again. As we pass the previous Stretch Goal and continue our journey into the halls of Xuchotl, a ghostly figure appears in the frame of a passage leading to the catacombs! It can't be him!

“Olmec spoke further of dark and mysterious matters, of black magic and wizardry conjured out of the black night of the catacombs, of weird creatures invoked out of darkness for horrible allies… for it was in the eastern catacombs where lay the bones of the greatest wizards of the ancient Xuchotlans, with their immemorial secrets.” -Red Nails Sword Brethren, Dan here, from the Nemedian Chroniclers. I wanted to tell you about The Deep Unknown, an optional scenario for the Solo/Co-op campaign in Red Nails, that uses the Catacombs map from the Versus Mode. In The Deep Unknown the Heroes enter the horrifying depths of the Catacombs beneath Xuchotl. The Pipes of Madness lure them further and further into the twisted maze. In pursuit of artifacts of power and stalked by weird creatures invoked out of darkness, how long will the Heroes press their luck? The Crawler The scenario features a number of unconventional mechanics. First off, the Heroes decide how long the scenario lasts! The game ends when the final surviving Hero escapes, with or without the loot... and with or without their comrades. They can leave the Catacombs at any time, but only a Hero that is brave enough to face the Burning Skull will be rewarded with a unique and powerful item. Should a comrade fall, the corrupted sorcery of the Catacombs won't let them rest. A slain Hero rises again, Soulless, now under the control of the dark forces that haunt Xuchotl. To simulate the black magic and wizardry that saturates the Catacombs, there is a Spell Deck. Each time a specific Event tile is activated, players pick a Hero and draw from the deck and then apply the effects of the spell to their unfortunate friend. The longer the Heroes linger in the depths, the more foul the sorcery becomes! The risk is great, but the reward is greater. Do you dare face the Deep Unknown?

Sword Brethen, The Black Dragons have fulfilled their oath and brought us victory over the last Stretch Goal. Five miniatures from one of the most requested units will make their way into the Versus Mode Expansion along with 2 activation tiles to lead 2 different troops into battle if you already have the add-on from the first campaign! Now, it is time to make your voice heard. The next Stretch Goal adds a 2-scenario campaign to Red Nails, and you get to decide: 1- The 2 Maps on which this story will unfold. 2- The Mode (Adventure or Solo/coop) in which you want that story to be told. Click on one of the images below. This will take you to the form where you can vote for 2 maps taken from the Red Nails Expansion, the Core Box and the 1st campaign Stretch Goals. Then you can select in which Mode you want to play this mini-campaign. The polls remain open until the Stretch Goal is unlocked, and you can change your vote until then if you have a better combination that comes up. Now vote!

Sword Brethen, Although the reprint survey will remain open until Monday January 28 at this address, our emissary has come to bring you some good news. We can already confirm that all the proposals made in the survey will be available at the Pledge Manager: Khitai, Nordheim, Stygia, available individually and as a bundle, Deluxe Dashboards, and V2 rulebooks. To help you unlock the next Stretch Goals and already claim what’s yours, we've decided to make the Big 3 Bundle available now for a price of 109€! These classic expansions come with 4 game boards, Heroes, Enemies and dedicated scenarios written by Croc, Bruno Cathala and Ludovic Maublanc! Khitai Khitai is a mysterious place in Howard's works. It is known however that it’s home to great sorcerers whose spells are feared by those from the West. Take Conan and his companions East to this mysterious land as they are swept up in a sinister assassination plot. Take part in a daring assassination attempt before escaping from a flaming tower where the only way out is up! Nordheim The north wind blows in from the rugged domains north of Conan's homeland. With Asgard to the east and Vanaheim to the west, these two territories compose the frozen tundra that is Nordheim. The men of these lands are toughest of the tough, hardened by cold and battle. Blood spilling across the pristine snow as different tribes fight for supremacy. Despite the uneasy relationship between the Cimmerians and the Aesirs, Conan earns their respect through strength of arms and embarks on more than one adventure across these glistening lands. Stygia Far to the South of Conan's home there lies a dry, arid land where a rugged, dark skinned people eke as much of a life as they can out of the sands. The environment is not the only danger in these lands however, there is a darker, more sinister power at work, one that man should have known to leave well enough alone but the promise of power is too tempting for some. Now the dead rest uneasily beneath the sands and monstrous beasts devour men like cattle as the great and powerful watch on, eternally. You can already click on "Manage you pledge" and "Change your pledge" to add this bundle! If you only want one or two expansions from the bundle, they will be available individually during the Pledge Manager.

Hello backers! This is Ken from the Nemedian Chroniclers. Today I am going to talk about one of the most unique scenarios I’ve written, The Door of the Eagle included in the Red Nails Expansion. I wanted to create a scenario that offered a different gameplay experience each time the players set it up. When the scenario starts, our Heroes Conan, Valeria, and Techotl have escaped a Xotalanc attack and are trying to reach the safety of the Tecuhltli throne room. But this is where our story diverges from Howard’s tale. In this scenario, no one opens the door. In a rage, Conan vows to find another entrance to the throne room and topple the pillar of Red Nails to show that this cycle of violence can be broken. This scenario introduces a couple of new mechanics. The first relates to a rope token, which can be used to climb up and down the pillars to the different floors. A hero with a Rope or a Whip item card can attach it to a pillar with a simple manipulation, and then remove the token to retrieve the Rope or the Whip. The second mechanic introduces scenario cards. The Door of the Eagle starts with only two tiles in the River. Whenever Heroes open doors in search of a secret entrance, a scenario card is revealed. Since there are more scenario cards than rooms to explore, you never know when, or even if, a certain enemy will show up. Each card has 2 parts, Enemy and Effect. The Enemy section usually adds units to the board and their tile to the River. And sometimes these units perform a surprise attack! The Effect section hinders the Heroes or helps the Overlord in some manner, whether it is increasing the Overlord’s recovery value or reinforcement points, depriving the Heroes of a skill, or even destroying the Heroes weapons! I hope you enjoyed this overview of The Door of the Eagle from the Red Nails Expansion! We also wish a Happy Belated Birthday to Robert E Howard who wrote so many timeless stories and helped shape our imaginations and our love for fantastic worlds.

Few have left an indelible mark on a character and the way it is imagined, as Frank Frazetta did with Conan. We offered many “Artist boxes” throughout the 4 Conan campaigns, but we never had the opportunity to showcase this phenomenal artist. So we are very proud to present the Frank Frazetta Box! This box also contains a unique scenario that allows both miniatures to be played, including the mounted Conan! The Frank Frazetta Box comes with: - 1 Conan The Berserker miniature - 1 Conan The Destroyer miniature - 2 Hero Sheets - 1 Scenario leaflet - 3 Unit Tiles - 2 Tokens Miniatures Conan The Berserker Conan The Destroyer

Sword Brethen, The crocodiles are on the loose! You call that a knife? This is a knife! You'd better be equipped to take on these terrifying swimmers, between their passive armor and their untouchable skill. With 4 base movement points, they'll be able to deploy rapidly towards heroes unfortunate enough to approach their territory. Thanks to your mobilization on social networks, Ageera's Hero Sheet is unlocked and joins the Red Nails expansion. On the way to the new Rogue version of Naïade's Conan profile! The next Stretch Goal will unlock a magnificent Dragon lithography, masterfully created by Antonio Manzanedo for the Red Nails expansion.

This expansion brings a brand new way of playing the game where 2 players, the General and the Warlord, draft their armies and face off in intense battles lasting less than an hour, each equipped with a Book of Skelos. It is a more tactical and competitive approach to the game than the Adventure and Solo/Coop Modes. Create your own armies, mixing pirates, mummies and mercenaries to fit your strategy and outsmart your opponent. The game sessions are short, allowing you to experiment with the best composition. This mode still relies on scenarios to give a setting and objectives to the players,because it is always more fun when there is a story to tell. The Versus Mode Expansion comes with: - 4 Gunderman Mercenary miniatures - 4 Kushite Mercenary miniatures - 4 Hyrkanian Mercenary miniatures - 1 Book of Skelos - 1 Double-sided board - 3 Hero Sheets - 14 Cards - 1 Rules and Scenarios Booklet - 43 Unit Tiles - 27 Tokens Boards Fort Tuscelan Fort Tuscelan is an iconic location of the Conan novellas. It is Aquilonia’s furthest outpost to the West, protecting them from the Bossonian Marches and their savage inhabitants, the Picts. It has been the setting of many bloody battles. This board was mainly designed for attacker/defender scenarios. It is possible to move around it in order to attack from multiple fronts which can make it challenging to defend. But on the other hand, the defender has a clear line of sight to their enemies and the high ground. That is, until the doors are breached… The Catacombs Who knows what danger lurks in these underground passages where the bones of ancient wizards and their timeless spells rest. Catacombs are never a place for rest and merriment in the Conan novellas, and for good reason. Opposite to the Fort Tuscelan, this board provides a more open battlefield. Its numerous passages and entrances give you the freedom to maneuver and threaten your opponent from multiple fronts... until a horror from the deep forces you to reconsider your plans. Miniatures Gunderman Mercenaries Renowned for their ferocity in battle and unwavering morale, they are a major asset for the General who seeks to build a reliable army. We've heard one might go by the name of Nestor, but the Nemedian scholars can't quite agree on the facts. Kushite Mercenaries Without armor, they may appear vulnerable, but they're damned hard to hit! Their agility, combined with their mastery of all forms of combat, make them formidable foes. Wielding short spears, they are able to deflect enemy attacks while delivering deadly blows. Hyrkanian Mercenaries Accustomed to fighting on horseback or armed with a bow, the Hyrkanians can also field formidable infantry units capable of holding the line against any charge. These massive warriors can create an impassable wall with their shields while inflicting tremendous damage on their enemies. Mode Overview With the Versus Mode, we wanted to create a brand new gaming experience based on a system that has proved its versatility. The main challenge we faced was to strike the right balance between building something new and keeping the core of what makes this game so fun to play. That's why we chose to make the least amount of changes to the system. This also allows anyone who knows how to play Conan to jump into a Versus game right away. And the Book of Skelos is the perfect tool for tactical play! Benefits Exertion Limits Those little red numbers any Conan player has come to love and hate make their appearance on the Benefits. Which means that the number of gems a player can assign to a Benefit during a single turn is limited in Versus Mode! This makes for even more decision making on how you spend your gems. Units Movement Each character on the active tile gains 2 extra movement points. In Adventure Mode, spending a gem on the Movement Benefit grants you 1 Movement point to spend on a character. In Versus Mode, spending a gem on the Movement Benefit gives you an additional movement point for each character of the active Unit tile! This was a necessary change as it dramatically increases the mobility of your units and makes the battle a lot more dynamic and cinematic. Armor Value The Armor Value of a Unit tile no longer represents a fixed defense value in Versus Mode. Instead, when a character defends, the player controlling that character rolls a number of orange dice equal to the Armor Value. The result of this dice roll is the passive defense value of that character. This was also a necessary change in order to make every unit a threat, even for more powerful characters. Army Composition Another drive behind this mode was to allow the players to make even more use of their miniatures and tiles. Unit tiles now all have a level determined by their reinforcement cost. Each scenario indicates the army composition of the General and Warlord, with details such as the position of each tile in their River, the level of each tile the player can recruit, and the number of characters associated with each tile. The army composition may be different for the General and the Warlord. The scenario map also indicates the area of the board where the characters of each tile start the game. Each numbered gem corresponds to one of the characters from the Unit tile placed in that position in the River. This was an overview of this new Versus Mode. We invite you to download the draft version of the rules in the Downloads section and learn more about it!

Sword Brethen, The Hidden Chambers are open! We can now enter these gloomy depths, or flee from here before anything horrible comes out… These Chamber Boards are set alongside the main game board, denoting a separate floor or level rather than altering an existing room, and are the perfect place for an artifact or as a lair for creatures to sprawl from. Let’s head back into the jungle, it is safer out there. But don’t get too close to the waters… And we have also have a Social Stretch Goal for you to unlock! Share the word and this post with your friends on Facebook so they can join the fight! Each threshold will add another Hero Sheet to the Red Nails Expansion and will be a Hero you can select to play in the included Solo/Coop campaign! Don’t forget to answer the survey we put online here to say which of the 3 big expansions you would like to see reprinted: https://zfrmz.eu/ont9MYQk3HMIwqhGoJgE
