pig Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 (edited) [Last update on april the 24, 2024] Hi, I coded an application/site to accompany during a game of Conan. The idea is to gather in one place resources that can be found in other places to make the games more fluid. The site is intended mainly for tablets, it is the most convenient format to have next to a game board, I think. The application can be found here: https://companion.the-overlord.com (on tablet and phone, you can also install is to have a native application that will work offline) The main features of the current 0.26 version are: Boards: Updated dynamic lines of sight Specific rules of every board Rules : Game aids on skills with adjusted texts mixing the original french and english texts and the details at the end of the rules booklet Heroes's book with a search engine Overlord's book with a search engine Encyclopedia: Search among all the equipment and spell cards, the heroes sheets, the overlords tiles, the models and even the tokens (mostly to help the scenarios creation - or find easily your hero in coop mode) and links between all these elements and the rules Studio: Creation of equipement and spells cards, the heroes sheets and the overlord tiles in a few clics in order to print it. Misc: Customize the extensions you own in order to display only interresting content FR/EN/IT multilingual application (but if someone is ready to handle a traduction, he can contact me) List of credits and thanks to their respective authors Access to the github to declare a bug or a "simple" improvement idea 😊 The future main feature will be the search for scenarios. Here are a few screenshots: Enjoy! Edited April 24, 2024 by pig 7 5
Footballzs Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 This is brilliant. Hopefully Monolith provides some support. 1 1
Primeval Posted December 21, 2019 Posted December 21, 2019 This is brilliant - thank you so much; it will make scenario creation much easier! Thank you! 2
Footballzs Posted December 23, 2019 Posted December 23, 2019 I also wish to point out this site put together by another fan. It does a good job of putting everything in one place. https://conan-companion.herokuapp.com/scenarios 1
pig Posted December 23, 2019 Author Posted December 23, 2019 Indeed, I recently found this site. I will try to contact its creator to share some resources! Thanks 1
Ken Posted December 27, 2019 Posted December 27, 2019 I know this app isn't getting a lot of acknowledgement here, but this app is fantastic for both designing and playing scenarios. I have already found it very useful (as well as the other site Footballzs mentioned). I love the fan dedication to this game. I love the idea of adding scenarios to this app. Since you already added the ability for the user to mark which products they have, if you include sort/filter functionality for the scenarios, it would help people a lot. As a creator of fan-made scenarios, I would love it if you included some fan-made scenarios, but quality control for that might be a significant task. Have you shared this on the Conan Facebook groups? Also, are you planning on adding anything for the upcoming solo/coop mode? 1

Have you shared this on the Conan Facebook groups? Also, are you planning on adding anything for the upcoming solo/coop mode? Since I helped debugging and translating this site/companion, I believe I can partially answer: - Once the scenario library will be added, the "filter per product" function will certainly be there too. It already works for the boards (i.e. the boards you see are automatically filtered depending on the products you have selected in the "My expansions" menu). - I might be wrong, but I do not think it is reasonably doable to add each and every fan-made scenario (the official ones might already be a dauting task). But including some of them should not add a tremendous workload. I'm thinking about the fan scenarios of the Compendiums/TO Mags, and the couples of Campaigns like the ones you co-wrote (Whispers from Stygia etc). 4
pig Posted January 13, 2020 Author Posted January 13, 2020 Hi. Yes @Roolz is right. I will first, add all the official scenarios. Then depending on the schedule, I will add a connector to https://conan-scenarios.com/ And I will also add some of the fan-made scenarios we can find here. The search engine will be nice I hope: it will use the expansions you declared for sure ; but you will be able to also see scenarios you cannot play directly if you want to proxy some characters. Additionally, you will be able to search a scenario to play with a given hero. Thank you for your support! 2
pig Posted January 13, 2020 Author Posted January 13, 2020 For the search, I will also add somehing dedicated to the campains. Not sure exactly what, but maybe a separate search page.... For the coop/solo mode, I will see when it will be available, but I think so. Maybe it would mean two differents apps.

pig Posted April 3, 2020 Author Posted April 3, 2020 Oops ... victim of his success? free hosting is suspended .... I will give you a new url as soon as possible 1
Andrew Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 Looking forward to seeing the new url, very interested in this app
pig Posted April 6, 2020 Author Posted April 6, 2020 Thank you for your support 🙂 We are working on it 1
pig Posted May 20, 2020 Author Posted May 20, 2020 The application is back online and hosted here thanks to @SentMa http://the-overlord.com/Companion/Conan/ This is the same version that was previsouly online BUT a new version is coming soon and will be available in a few weeks : I will tell you more soon 🙂 1 1
Ken Posted May 20, 2020 Posted May 20, 2020 I love this app, I'm so glad it's back. Will you be adding the new maps from Conan the Conqueror? 1
pig Posted May 21, 2020 Author Posted May 21, 2020 Thanks Of course I will add them! As soon as I could 🙂 2
pig Posted June 6, 2020 Author Posted June 6, 2020 (edited) Hi all, a new version has been deployed here http://the-overlord.com/Companion/Conan/ It contains a studio for heroes sheets and especially an encyclopedia (whose idea came to me on the site https://conan-companion.herokuapp.com/) whose purpose is to help the creation of scenarios mainly: to answer the question, if i use this spell and this equipment, what extensions are necessary to play it? conversely, if I limit myself to such extension, I can choose among which equipments? I need a strong hero in attack ... I need a spell for the overlord that does area damage ... (At first I have added all the equipments, spells and heroes sheets, but not yet the skelos tiles) Enjoy Edited June 8, 2020 by pig 4
bobaboba Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 Hi, this looks fantastic! Thank you so much! Do you think it is possible to create a offline version of this? Not only for playing on holidays, where we usually do not have internet, but also for archiving, if one day this information or website might be gone offline?! 1 1
pig Posted June 9, 2020 Author Posted June 9, 2020 11 hours ago, bobaboba said: Do you think it is possible to create a offline version of this? Yes, I agree with you. I will not post an application on stores, nor an apk but my site is a PWA and offline mode is planed. For the moment all you can do is: menu / add to home screen in order to have an icon that lead to the site in a separate fullscreen window (and later this will support offline) 1
Dadodragon Posted June 18, 2020 Posted June 18, 2020 Great job! I have an alert: some brom box equipment cards have low res images, I didn't check more, there can be others. Thank you again. 1 1

I do not have the BromBox yet, so I got the images from the dark web 😄 If you can send be a scan of it (in private), I will integrate them 😉 2
chazelliott Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 Essential tool, greatly appreciated. Many thanks sir. 1
