The Crom ruleset from Matakishi's Tea House is now available at the Wargame Vault but can also be bought directly from the designer's website Matakishi's Tea House.
CROM Is a skirmish game set in the Hyborian Age "...Between the years when the oceans drank Atlantis and the gleaming cities, and the years of the rise of the Sons of Aryas..." that enables players to recreate the stories of Robert E. Howard and similar authors of heroic fantasy.
"Hither came Conan, the Cimmerian, black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his sandalled feet."
CROM is designed primarily as a multiplayer game but can be played with two players or even solo if desired. One or more players will play heroes, Conan and his companions for instance, and one or more of the other players will play the antagonists, Thulsa Doom, minions, monsters etc. The ideal set up would be three Hero players and a single Antagonist player.
The PDF includes full rules, an eight chapter campaign to get you started and templates for the cards and dice mat for only £5.00. More information and more pictures abou this excellent game can be found on his website.
