High-quality poker-size cardstock, 54-card deck.

Story Cards - Wave 3

Even Robert E. Howard was not above using elements from one story in another, and gamemasters are encouraged to walk alongside him with these story cards.

Gamemasters can use these as inspiration, or construct an adventure from whole cloth using these cards and a downloadable reference sheet. High-quality poker-size cardstock, 54-card deck

The Road of Kings - Wave 5

Ancient Ruins & Cursed Cities - Wave 2

The Hyborian Age is but a brief interlude in a cycle of geologic upheaval. Cataclysms, world-reshaping earthquakes, and floods have buried cultures and kingdoms beyond the memories of men. But their ruins remain, some long-abandoned by the living, and others still inhabited by their descendants. Some were places of strange magic and enchantments, while others saw weird science of a type the making of which is long forgotten. These lost and ruined places are brought to life with maps, descriptions of their mysterious inhabitants, and any secrets to be discovered, and curses that might still be in effect for those daring (or unwary) enough to trespass. Full-color hardcover, 112 pages.

Savage Swords - Wave 4

This sourcebook delivers a fist full of weapons and equipment plus pregenerated nonplayer characters, both generic types and specific famous characters drawn from and inspired by the Conan stories, from all levels of experience and cultural backgrounds.

Spear & Fang - Wave 4

In addition to expanded cultural information for traditional Conan campaigns, this sourcebook discusses Pict-based campaigns, including character creation, new character lifepaths and character options, Pictish history, tribes, their myths, and their magic, as well as creatures and monsters unique to their savage kingdom, with story seeds aplenty

Distant Lands - Wave 5

Beyond the lands described by Robert E. Howard are other, even more exotic kingdoms, places Conan may have travelled and adventured in tales as-of-yet unwritten. Some of these are the pre-Cataclysmic ancestors of cultures from our own dimly-remembered history, while others are like nothing left on this Earth. This book also covers Khitai and Hyrkania, both of which were barely mentioned in Howard’s stories. This sourcebook presents a variety of these far-off and mysterious lands, with new backgrounds, lifepaths, and character options, alongside setting material such as cultures, geography, gods, magic, monsters, equipment, and more

CROSS-OVERS

Contained within these pages are descriptions of the kingdoms that came before the Hyborian Age: Lemuria, Grondar, Atlantis, the Pictish Isles, Commoria, and mightiest of them all, the kingdom that Kull ruled with his own axe… purple-towered Valusia!

Howard’s Conan: Adventures in an Age Undreamed Of, this sourcebook contains alternate rules for character creation to suit adventuring in Kull’s world.

The Monolith Sourcebook - Wave 3

Play the RPG alone, Play the Boardgame scenarios alone, or link them all together in one great experience!

Conan Exiles Sourcebook - Wave 3

This tie-in sourcebook adapts areas and gameplay from Funcom’s new Conan Exiles online massively multiplayer online game to Modiphius’ 2d20 system. In the online game and the sourcebook, the heroes face a challenge unlike anything they’ve encountered before: survival in an isolated land, attempting to build a community that might persevere against the depredations of neighboring kingdoms. Thrust into the Exiled Lands — a desolate region shrouded in mystery — the heroes must ready themselves and their fledgling community against repeated invasions. To survive, they must manage a tiny population, forge alliances, build defenses, improve weapons, train their forces, and adventure forth into the untamed wilderness of the Exiled Lands surrounding them. Will those they meet turn into allies, or enemies?

Developed in partnership with the Conan Exiles team and Free League Publishing (the designers of Mutant: Year Zero), this sourcebook adapts the critically-acclaimed community-development system from Mutant: Year Zero for the Hyborian Age.

The Age of Conan Sourcebook - Wave 5

Funcom’s free-to-play Age of Conan is one of the most successful massive-multiplayer online roleplaying games of the last decade, still going strong, bringing millions of players into Conan’s world.

This will be lavishly illustrated with concept and original art from Age of Conan, as well as screenshots and renderings from the models used in the game.
