Today we had a follow up game to my last one (link in the blog post) – and had a curious fight!
If you want to see how this one went, please go to my blog at this link

I don't need to read a report to know what happened.

Conan kills all men. Conan wins. Fight ends.

Well.. Conan could get captured. It's happened before. The Conan escapes and kills all men…..

jgawne, you left out "Conan then rides off with the girl." It's how you know the story/scenario is over.

Unless he's jumping out the window of the garrison commander's wife's bedroom.

Then he kills everyone and hotfoots it…

"Conan kills all men. Conan wins. Fight ends."
Well, if that's now how it ends, it's not historical.

It's not the destination -- it's the journey. Does Conan kill the boss monster with a savage slash of his two-handed sword right through its neck, so that its head fell to Conan's feet while all were showered by an arcing fount of blood? Or did Conan kill the boss monster by punching it so hard that it fell, at which point he mounted it and grabbed its neck in his mighty hands, squeezing and twisting until the neck broke and the head popped off and was driven away by a burst of foul-smelling green ichor? Or did … well, you get the idea.

In general I agree, but the same can be said for using Jedi in Star Wars gaming!
In my Playtest set of rules, Conan is only at risk from very good enemy/being outflanked/ or as in the books, from Missiles.
