Dynamic and Interesting Mechanics
As players dive into the blood-soaked and high-adventure world of Conan, they'll make use of powerful equipment and spells to take on the horrors that await them. Heroes take actions together and can alternate actions with other players to create brilliant moments of high-stakes combat and risk taking. Work together wisely, and you may stand victorious over the bodies of your fallen enemies.
Performing Actions
Actions are performed by allocating small gems to various sections of your character board. There are caps on how many gems can be spent on an action in any given turn, but beyond those limits, players may use as many gems as they wish.
How Far Will You Go?
Players can expend any number of gems they want to, but they'll only get a limited number back at the end of every turn. The gems are used for actions and combat, but they're also used to defend against the Overlord's minions and they serve as a character's health. You can go all out on a campaign of death and carnage, spending all of your gems to carve a path through the Overlord's forces. But, you'll only get two gems back at the end of the round. So, how far will you go in the name of glory?
Step into the Shoes of the Overlord
The Overlord has a special Skelos Board which affords them actions to take and choices to make. Using the same gem system, the Overlord will spend gems to move their minions around the board, attack, initiate scenario-unique events, and place the heroes in great peril! A sliding track gives the Overlord dynamic choices, paying more for tiles further up the track and shifting tiles up in order as they're used. Orchestrate the demise of the heroes, and you'll end up on top!
