About the game
What you do in a play session
If you're a die-hard fan of Robert E. Howard's universe, grab your axe! The Tome of Skelos is far more than just a rulebook; it's a massive hardcover supplement that drastically expands the possibilities of Conan. With 80 pages of pure content, this item was a centerpiece of the 'Conan the Conqueror' Kickstarter and brings everything you need to elevate your base game experience.
What's in store for you? First, multiplayer sessions get a massive boost with 8 brand-new scenarios for the original adventure mode (one vs. many), making full use of all the new miniatures, maps, and tiles. But wait, there's more! If you prefer facing the horrors of the Pictish Wilderness solo or with a partner, the book offers 11 new scenarios in solo/cooperative styles. You'll choose your heroes, scavenge for equipment, and hunt for powerful Boons to ensure your survival.
Additionally, the book includes an updated version of the solo and cooperative rules that debuted in the Conan: The Monolith Sourcebook, ensuring a smooth and seamless gameplay experience. All of this is wrapped in stunning new artwork and illustrations that plunge you deep into the brutal world of Conan. It's the kind of content that transforms your base game into something entirely new and much more profound. If you're looking for more chaos, more danger, and more epic tales to tell, this book is your next destination!
