Monolith: Conan, Hyborian Quests Miniature Boardgame Latest Previews


Monolith: Monolith is a French game publisher whose first project is a miniatures boardgame based on Robert E. Howard’s Conan universe. This game is described as "a scenario-based semi-cooperative asymmetric miniatures board game" and is based purely on Robert E. Howard's novels and short stories. 

The publisher has hired Patrice Louinet, one of the finest Howard expert in the world, to make sure the art and the scenarios are compatible with Howard's vision. The project will be funded through Kickstarter somewhere in January 2015. I have only included the latest previews but lots of artwork and sculpts can be found on their Facebook page.


The Pictish village map and a small portion of the Tavern map (both illustrated by Georges Cl4renko). The tables and chairs are still missing, this simply because they will be represented by 3D models so that the players can joyfully beat each other senseless with them!

- Shevatas from the "Black Colossus" story
- A necromancer imagined according to the first draft of “The Hour of the Dragon” story
