Yesterday on social media I posted a link to a video “The Ultimate Conan The Barbarian Retrospective“.
And then today, as if a divine message, I was looking through my to-do pile for some sets to list. And then I cast my gaze on the Conan Role-Playing Game box set. It called out for some attention.
TSR dabbled with its Conan license back in 1984 (publishing two Conan adventures for AD&D), and then in 1985 releasing this stand-alone RPG box set, plus three modules in support.
