Sci-Fi-Fantasy War Games

Age Of Conan - The Strategy Board Game

From Fantasy Flight Games comes the epic, strategy board game Age of Conan! Inspired by the adventures and escapades of the barbarian hero Conan (by Robert E. Howard), the Age of Conan will plummet players into the world of sword and sorcery. The land is called Hyboria, where great kingdoms war amongst each other for dominance. In addition to the warring legions, monstrous creatures, witches, sorcerers, demonic servants, and more dot the landscape. Players will begin with controlling one of the four major kingdoms in the land of Hyboria. Many tactics will be employed as players fight for dominance, trying to take other land and expand boundaries. Though each kingdom wants to utilize the might of the maverick barbarian, Conan's volatile alliance is elusive. No player can control Conan in the game completely, however, he can be used to put a wrench in the best laid plans! The game is played in a succession of three ages, and ends when the third age has been played completely or when someone attempts to crown Conan the ruler of his/her kingdom (can only occur in the third age). Accrued points are then tallied to determine the final victor!
