I like Conan!

I spent a lot of dough on the d20 Conan RPG today. Why did I do it?

1. The Conan stories are awesome. I like pulp (hey, Lovecraft is pulp) and Robert E. Howard knew what he was about. I got a collection of Conan stories and they're great... super-violent, morally interesting, no Austrian accents.
2. I wanted a d20 game that I could have in one book. I'm burnt out on standard D&D and I wish I didn't have 2 boxes of D&D stuff. The mammoth Conan book has it all, and it's a grittier kind of fantasy system.
3. I had fifty dollars burning a hole in my pocket.
4. I have never seen such gigantism in a scrotum before.
