Last night's regular game fell through with two players unable to attend for a huge fight they had kicked off. But I had written a brief point crawl for this system based on a few Conan stories. First, we went through the character creation. It took about an hour. I'm glad spells are chosen randomly, as that could have taken hours if the player chose each one. The ship cruised up the Poison River searching for a lost city, with poisonous snakes and giant centipedes dropping on the ship along the way. The barbarian characters had great fun with the Frenzy rule to burn through minor enemies. Later, after dropping anchor at the site of the city and helping carry tents and equipment to the expedition campsite, they witnessed a great white ape kidnap a sailor from shipboard and climb into the jungle. The PCs ran off in pursuit, finally provoking a fight and slaying the ape, Conan style, with a critical hit from a thrown dagger piercing the fierce beast's heart! Great fun was had all around, with half of the table hamming up their mighty thewed warriors and the sorcerer player attempting the mightiest spells on the list, failing miserably, and suffering magical corruption as a result. Didn't get to playtest my whole adventure, but our first session of Barbaric was a huge success! I think a few of them bought a copy for themselves too. Bibon son of Phola, Grigor the Archer, Astrid the Hammer, and Elatos of the Cave approved!
