I actually found something I can't use with C&C.

I found this old TSR Conan module which isn't D&D based by the name of: 'Conan the Buccaneer'.

I'd like to play it -yum, adventuring in Hyboria- but I have no idea what the stats mean.

Anyone know of this adventure and whether there's a D&D conversion for it?

That's an adventure for the Conan RPG released by TSR. Its somewhat like AD&D, but not too. It can be ran with C&C, but you'd need some understanding of the Conan rules to do a "true conversion." Otherwise, ignore the stats and make them up.... usually, higher numbers = more powerful.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing; if all else fails I'll just give this idea a go and pick an appropriate level.

Regardless, the mod will be a cool resource for adventure generating.

A really gnarly resource for role-playing in REH Hyboria is the GURPS Conan book. It didn't have much in the way of rules (besides a Mass Combat system that is self-contained). It also has just about the most detailed map and gazeteer of Hyboria (including Khitai and the southern coast of the Black Kingdoms) I have ever seen.

I have that Conan RPG and module somewhere. I can probably help decipher the meaning. I don't know that there is a D&D conversion for it.

Let me know what you need.
