This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

For men of taste, endurance and sophistication

Ho-lee cow.

I wonder if the PC game is gettable for those who never played the tabletop version.

I don´t think so.
The manual is actually the rulebook.

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.

As I´m swamped in work and other obligations, I can understand that sentiment.
I have it installed, but do not play it until the stars are right.

So it's actually "real" Empires in Arms and not some bastardized version?!

Wow...I expected this would be in development in perpetuity.  Matrix tends to be half-assed with a lot of their product, but this looks like it could be great.

Sigh...I have to make some more room in the budget somewhere...
For fuck\'s sake, these are games, people.

And no one gives a fuck about your ignore list.

It´s the real thing. The only thing I dislike is some of the naval options. They are more more EiH than the advanced rules form the General.
