Totally, can't wait to see the profile of Yezdigerd, and the leaders of the East, or that of Shem or Stygia

Looks very good, I liked the pictures as well. Keep the good stuff coming.

Cheers lads, the portraits will be shrunk down for use in the game, but they'll be used in the opening splash screens of the campaign too.

Those profiles are a ways off yet, sadly: I'm concentrating on the Western kingdoms for the first release, but the second release will certainly feature characters like Yezdigerd, Yasmina and Ctesphon.

Yes it is russia, yes it is.

Although I can enjoy the movie on it's own merits, the literary character of Conan bears little resemblance to the cinematic character. While the film Conan spent his childhood pushing a giant wheel, Howard's Conan had formative years consisting of hunting mountain beasts, slaying Aquilonian invaders and breaking the necks of wild bulls.

I mean, don't get me wrong, it was a fun movie: but it's kind of like making a Tarzan film where Tarzan was raised by rabbits.

I thought it made him way too much into a barbarian . After watching the first movie I read a couple of the short stories . I was surprised how much smarter the dude was .
