Dear Monolith, I appreciate that you wanted to do it as cheaply as possible. Taking money for something and then not delivering it is called FRAUD in the US (not sure how it’s handled outside the US). I realize that you intended it to be a nice gesture, but in the end, you simply shouldn’t have done this if you couldn’t do it with some confidence of getting it right. Once again, your company has failed at basic customer service. Look at all the customers posting here and think about how you’ve alienated them (after going to all the trouble to improve relations with the excellent Book of Set). For every customer you’re adding, you’re losing one along the way. At the very least, you owe us a formal announcement via e-mail through the Pledge Manager that our packages were lost in the mail and how we can apply for a refund. To my fellow US backers, just call your credit card company and get the charge reversed. It takes more time and is more hassle than a refund through Monolith, but in the end, you will get your money back as they have no proof they’ve mailed anything. Thanks for nothing (literally)...

Thanks to Monolith for supporting the game in this fashion even at some of their own expense. I know that there was a bumpy start to Conan, but this commitment really says something about the integrity of Monolith. It played a major part in my to go all in on the Batman Kickstarter. Besides, Conan’s journey’s are filled with challenges and unexpected events as well .

Hi everyone, We ran into an interesting question in this scenario. The event tile gives two options. One of them is titled, "At Your Command: The Overlord can invert two tiles in the river." We had some difficulty interpreting the word, "Invert". It would seem to literally suggest that you could flip a couple of tiles in the river over to prevent the players from getting the XP for killing the tile, however, it's not clear what you would do with models that are left on the board when you invert the tile. I couldn't find this effect defined anywhere in the rules. Also, it would seem to be more efficient to simply reinforce those tiles using the other option (which gives you 3 RP's). That got us to thinking that it may be an awkward translation from "switch the position of two tiles in the river". That would seem to be a more beneficial effect and less ambiguous to implement. Can we get a ruling from Monolith? How do you guys play it? Thanks, Cliff

Poison weapons would be a very effective way to increase some of the weaker monster's effectiveness (e.g. Pirates). Conan is not a game with a lot of record-keeping mechanics (beyond gems), so anything you can do to make it more work within those mechanics is probably simpler to use...

Thanks for the response, that's how I understand it as well.

Hi folks, Reading the 2nd edition rules, it's clear that players can reroll a single die multiple times. Questions: 1) If you have multiple free rerolls (e.g. Dark Demon) can you reroll a single die multiple times with this? Presumably, you can spend gems after this to reroll as you'd like. 2) Can the overlord do this as well (either with a free reroll and subsequent gems or multiple gems)? Thanks, Cliff
