Conan: To Race the Thunder - A Play by Post Adventure
Conan: Adventures in an Age Undreamed Of, Conan | Campaign
About the adventure
Step into the savage, sword-swept world of Robert E. Howard’s Conan, where kingdoms rise and fall beneath the weight of steel, and a single warrior’s courage can change the fate of empires. Conan: Adventures in an Age Undreamed Of is a gritty, cinematic campaign powered by the 2d20 system, set in the brutal, glorious Hyborian Age — an era of ruthless kings, ancient ruins, dark sorcery, and hard-won glory. Expect pulpy, cinematic action with an emphasis on player-driven choices, brutal melee combat, and a grounded yet mythical tone that captures the feel of classic sword-and-sorcery tales. Magic is rare, feared, and corrupting — the domain of ancient things best left forgotten. Glory and gold are out there, waiting to be claimed — but they come at a price, paid in blood. If you want to tell bold tales in the spirit of Robert E. Howard — with grit under your nails, steel in your hands, and a thousand enemies at your back — then gather your courage, sharpen your blade, and prepare to etch your legend into the bones of the world.
In To Race the Thunder the Players are a motley collection of rangers, mercenaries, and others, dwelling at the edge of the Thunder River, near Fort Tuscelan bordering the pictish wilderness. On the way back from a patrol, they stumble into an unprecedented Pictish uprising, a savage assault against civilization that will see the destruction of the fort and the slaughter of hundreds of settlers in the region

I was new to the game system and Julm was very patient and welcoming. I definitely felt the freedom to be creative and give a character its own voice. Julm worked our actions smoothly into an entertaining, dangerous, and exciting story in the Conan universe. Great fun!

Played PbP with Julm and it was a great experience! He was patient and always there to help out with the rules and outlining options when I was stuck, while leaving plenty of space for creativity. He done a great job with bringing Hyborean age to life with descriptive and meaningful posts that was easy to riff on. Looking forward to play with him again!
