  1. I loved Conan's mom.... ...Ok, I confess: it was when I was the milkman of that village... I'm his real father!
  2. Here's a guard directly from the Mountain of Doom. I'm working on another one with an axe. @Arthadan As you asked I didn''t apply any filter. ;-) Hope this can be quite good for you. Rexor is coming but unfortunately it seems very hard to add legs to the picture I previously had uploaded.
  3. @Arthadan I completely erased the background and trying to add the legs, taking them from other screenshots. I think to send you my results by wednesday. No problems for the screenshots. I have already some of Akiro, but unfortunately not so good positions to work on for making a tile. Cheers!
  4. Ok, so am I, since I've done just chattering at the moment! Ps. Bigger wiggle... yes yes...
  5. I quote you: you really said it!!
  6. @Arthadan About the Princess name, I must confess I don't know what to say. I found nothing on the credits at the end of the movie. Anyway you have a third possibility: - Princess Yasmina of Zamora -The Princess of Zamora ...King Osric was the ruler of Zamora http://conan.wikia.com/wiki/King_Osric
  7. I think it might work good. ...CAN'T WAIT TO PLAY IT!
  8. If this can help, Doom arrives on the top of the hill when the battle has already begun and both Conan and Subotai have killed many enemies (not Thorgrim yet). If you remember the movie theme, just before the music changes. He stops and look at the battlefield, then moves a bit forward, but he immediately stands still and staring when Thorgrim is dying (last picture)... ...ok maybe it was just to have the occasion to rewatch these sequences...
  9. @Stonewolf Doom wears a sword in the last battle, but it is kept in its scabbard, hung to the horse.
  10. Thanks God!! I'll be pleased to leave the Art filters to you: I don't think I could recreate something similar to your Doom tile! ;-)
  11. Doom could also have different skills in the scenarios, so could it be good to use this?
  12. I must agree with Arthadan. So basically here are my suggestions: Who is Doom? -Both in Howard (Kull's tales) and in Milius movie he's more ancient than humans; and he's metamorphic (in many Howard tales a race who lived before mankind were kind of lizardmen/snakemen that were defeated by men, once they appeared) -He's a chief: he goes in battle, give strength with his presence to his men, but seem no to use a sword like a warrior'd do. -During the assault to the Cimmerian Village he didn't use the sword, until the battle is over: he just test the steel sword beheading Conan mum, after having influenced her with her eyes (He'll trying to do the same with his words to Conan himself before being killed) -He's more a "spell speaker" than a "spell caster" probably, but he knows magic when he turns a snake into an arrow and threw it in the night to seek and kill Valeria; -In the final battle he stood with his standard bearear on the hill top, outside the proper battlefield, and watch. He just come closer when Thorgrim is killed but stops immediately. When also Rexor is dead and all of his small army is killed (Note: he still have more warrior, some of them are killed by Conan when he goes to kill him at the end of the movie - last scenario???-, but probably he thought he could have won against so few enemies), he throws an arrow to kill the princess, the one that Subotai (and Akiro was there too) stops with his shield (could be interesting in case the objective of the scenario is to take or kill the princess for the Overlord). -He wear a complete armour. -He's not strong in attack melee: it is necessary to test the scenario to check his strength, but I guess that using "Fascination" could be the solution, so 2 orange dice can be good. -He must have a good defence, so 3 of armour is good, I guess. -Heroes who attack him couldn't be allowed to reroll - "FASCINATION" is a good solution (hey mr. Overlord, would you like to use him as a fighter? At your own risk...) -Is it necessary for him "UNTOUCHABLE"? No, he has Fascination already... -He definitively should have a special SUPPORT in my opinion: once per turn he can choose an area and all the Overlord figures there could reroll. -He should be good in Range attack, or he might have a single spell (only one) to throw a very dangerous arrow. -All of his warrior could "Sacrifice" , and should be "Bodyguard" - He should be also "PROTECTED" The Objective of the Overlord could be to rescue the princess, or if all the other Overlord figures are dead, Doom could try to kill her. In this case the scenario could end in draw. The Objective of the Heroes to keep the Princess (who's tied, so the Overlord figure should need a manipulation to free her). What do you think?
  13. Hi guys! AKIRO It sounds a very nice idea! I'd add him a "support" , or a kind of particular "counter attack": he can roll a counterattack when another hero in his area is attacked: that's what have saved to Subotai! TRAPS Now, the 3 heroes had prepared a strong defence, fortressing their area and preparing a trap (they chose the battlefield!). My idea is to create a number of rounded tokens with some weapons and only one trap (the one that had killed Thorgrin) and several blank ones. Before the scenario begins the heroes will put a face down token in some of the areas of the map (note: there's definitely no need for a token for each area). Everytime they step in an area with a token they (only the heroes!) could change their weapon (remember what Conan and Subotai do??) with a no manipulation needed (they knew the place and moved quick on their battlefield). When an enemy moves on the trap token the heroes can decide to turn and play it (how? Rolling a dice?). Thulsa Doom knights didn't know the terrain of the battlefield: Conan Subotai and Akiro did. What do you think?
  14. Hi guys! Sorry for my delay: There's a lot to read, to think about and then reply. So I'll do bettet in the next days.. By now here's something for my Lord @Arthadan I found this (unfortunatelly lq) pic, but very useful I hope. At the moment I only partially isolated the human figure, deleting the sky. I hope I can complete the helm and his legs, or... poor Rexor. Once finished I try with another one with Rexor battling Conan at the very end of the Battle. So you can choose what's better. anyway Look at the steel sword... Could be an army card needed? No problem for the pics. Really Feel free to ask more and more if you need! I'm pleased to help your project. I'll reply tomorrow to your question about Doom with a little idea. ...lets see... and to @Stonewall's posts Sleep with one eye opened, barbarians, or you'll wake up in hell! Goodnight"
  15. WONDERFUL!!! My only doubt is: are you sure he could attack by 2 red dice? I mean he never uses a sword in all the movie unless for chopping the head of Conan mother after being hipnotized her. When Conan is prisoned he said him that the riddle of steel is nothing compared to the power, persuasion over human mind. Infact he still ask Conan for it? But he seems no more interested in steel. When John Milius and Arnold comment the famous scene when Conan break his father's sword, duelling against Rexor, if I'm not wrong, the say that steel is nothing compared to the arm that hold it. So this is simply to explain my doubt: Doom tries to speak, persuade, hypnotize, like a kind of 'devil', he's not a man of war in the movie, and - if my memory doesnt fail - not even in one Kull tale in which he appears. Probably an Overlord would use such a strong character to fight in melee agains the heros So, it's only my personal opinion and my suggestion. Hope this can help! ;-) Your work is marvellous, anyway!
  16. I have an original dvd copy. Ok for full figures. I'm searching also the web for some pics from the set (very helpful sometimes). ;-)
  17. Ok. Honestly my graphic skills are not at best, but I have time and patience to work and rework... So I'll work on: Giant Snake Rexor at the battle of the Mounds Fangs of Set Akiro Ok?
  18. Ok. I'll try to work on some tiles, just to see if my way of working is ok. Then I'll show you the results and you'll tell me what you think about, changes to be made, etc.. Ok? I'll start capturing images from the dvd for Battle of the Mounds and the snake... and let's see. I'd start with these: ------------> Rexor (Battle of the Mounds outfit) ------------> Giant Snake Allies / Others ------------> Akiro (Battle of the Mounds outfit) Doom's soldiers at the battle of the Mounds??? needed? Let me know
  19. I don't know anything concerning the way you want to develope this project, but do you plan a sort of evolution for the characters? I mean, do you remeber the trailer of the movie? 'slave, gladiator, thief...etc' that movie is a kind of 'coming of age story'.... So, are you planning more than a single conan sheets to recreate the character evolution?
  20. I'd be pleased to help you in this project. My I help you with tiles, tokens and similar? Please, let me know.
  21. This can be the one suitable for the dinosaur at the beginning of Howard.s 'red Nails'. Great!
  22. Excuse me, are the values & skills the same as in the original tile? Thanks!
  23. You're right! I had thought to use the Alchemy as a Spell Caster.... Updated THANKS!
  24. Hi! Still don't know if this is the right place to post this, anyway here's a first "sleepless time" attempt... need to improve his skills and to find a proper 3d model to play with (I have one but 25mm and sit!!) .... but, as said, it's just a first attempt.... Thinking back at the Hour of the Dragon, which skills would you give him? PS. Remeber, never give him your heart, expecially if your name is Ahriman!
