Welcome back, Cromrades! This week, we take a look at the second section of Neuromancer, titled The Shopping Expedition. Time to gear up for a job - but what gear do we need? And what additions to the party are we making? How about a mind reading illusionist and a ghost within a phylactery? Sounds like a fantasy story, but when Gibson applies his signature cyberpunk style it adds another layer of cool to the story. Join us, won't you? One Things Jon: Dead Man's Wire, a film worth checking out. Josh: Fallout, a television show of exceptional quality. Luke: A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, a television show that exceeds expectations.

Send us a textIn 1982 Arnold Schwarzenegger stepped into the sandals of one of pulp's most celebrated heroes and, what was likely the most on point casting in the history of cinema, became legend. Conan the Barbarian.There is a common quote from that film, bandied about by fans, but it's not my favorite. My favorite quote from the film and my favorite scene come at the end of the picture.“Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you, will remember if we were good men or bad. Why we fought, or why we died. All that matters is that two stood against many. That's what's important! Valor pleases you, Crom... so grant me one request. Grant me revenge! And if you do not listen, then to HELL with you!”To me, that was ConanOver the years the Conan archetype has been shoehorned into many games, Of course I'm looking at the very poor attempt in D&D called the Barbarian class. You might like the class, but it's not Conan, and make no mistake it was supposed to be Conan when it was introduced.In 1985 TSR tried to cash in with its own Conan RPG. In 1989 Steve Jackson Games came out with a Conan supplement for GURPS. In 2004 Mongoose Publishing launched their Conan: The Roleplaying Game which was a d20 variant. And in 2017 Modiphius released a 2d20 version called Conan: Adventures in an Age Undreamed Of.All of these games had various levels of success. I mean it's Conan, it doesn't take much for people to pick up the book and several of them were held in high regard. Personally I never found one that really clicked for me. I gave the GURPS version a try, but it just felt a little flat.Then Monolith Board Games Kickstarted Conan the Hyborian Age. This rules light system approached the barbarian and Robert E. Howards tales differently then the other versions. In Conan the Hyborian Age the story mattered. The rules were simple and left the door open for narrative to push the story. Or at least that's what the Kickstarter said.So I backed it and when I downloaded a copy of the core rulebook something special happened.I got excited. I don't know what it was, maybe it was the fantastic art, maybe it was a focus on Robert E. Howard's stories, maybe it was the very simplistic combat system, maybe it was the magic system that pulled your own life to fuel the spells, or maybe they just found the perfect combination.I had to play this thing. So I hit up the Thursday night group and said “What do you guys think about playing a Conan game?”The rest as they say is history.On this episode Mike, Christina and I are going to talk about the new Conan: They Hyborian Age TTRPG. We will talk about the core rules, the book itself and the good, the great, and the bad we've come across after playing it for a couple of months.And just to give you a little heads up for the episode.I absolutely love this game.Christina, let's start with you. What's your history with Conan and what did you initially think when I suggested playing it?[Kick to Christina]Mike, same question, what did you think about Conan going into the game?[Kick to Mike]
