By Crom, this is a great deal! At first, I was a little skeptical and left a request for more information after reader what others had posted on this collection. Within just a day or two, the publisher got right back to me and had confirmed everything was in working order, so I jumped in on the purchase as a surprise for my players. The wealth information at my fingertips makes me feel as though I've stumbled upon an ancient library of forgotten lore, buried for millenia beneath the jungles of The Black Coast. The quality of every page is marvelous and I have yet to encounter any trouble with the files themselves. Aside from a few of the grammatical and spelling errors one would expect of scribes being pressured under pain of flogging, the charts, tables, and various informative sections are expertly constructed while the new mechanics, creature encounters, items, and sorcerous abilities seem perfectly balanced with the game and its many new archetypes. I have yet to delve into the ancient texts pre-dating the 2d20 system, but a conversion guide is available for those bold historians who wish to take their learning a step further without the need to first become masters of the old ways of the d20 era. The fact that these manuscripts and guides remain at all is a marvel on its own, but their inclusion in this bundle makes for an amazing deal that is more tempting than the fabled Heart of the Elephant. With all that I own now, thinking that there will be future additions at no cost has me thrilled to face down the horrors of the Hyborian Age with a band of dog brothers and sisters, eager to bloody the sands at our feet. Do not pass up this wonderful opportunity!

I bought this collection prior to the release of Scout, King, Adventurer, Wanderer and the Kull supplement, and just downloaded them as part of the update. I read a lot of criticism about 2D20, but despite that, I was still very interested in playing the system. I recently found a group playing and joined a new adventure. After 2 sessions, I have to say... I'm hooked. The flow of momentum, fortune and doom are pretty smooth (of course, the GM I'm playing with has been playing 2D20 for some time, so that helps). One comment he made while we were talking about playing is that 2D20 is designed to help the PCs succeed. I like that, and it makes the adventures pretty epic. I've been saved a few times already by taking advantage of the momentum pool. The only reason I give the collection 4 stars instead of 5 is that there appear to be several typos in the PDFs (I don't own most of the books, so I can't say if there have been corrections). However, I understand that publishing is hard, especially gaming books, and the typos don't detract from the playability of the game or the system in my limited experience.

I'm a lifelong Conan fan and this bundle is amazing. This collection is best used purely for the setting. 2D20 has its critics and in my opinion, deservingly so, but they did a wonderful job at expanding Robert E. Howard's Hyborian Age. The Monolith Source Book is particularly wonderful and a complete must buy if you own the board game. The Solo/Co-op campaign for the board game in this book is one of the best Conan experiences in gaming I've had. The art in this collection is something else entirely to be marveled at. It will not only capture you with its beauty, but it is near magical how it can conjure wonderful ideas for your gaming needs. Even if 2D20 isn't your thing, this setting is so well done that these books and stories would be a wonderful addition to your idea pool for any of your RPG needs. I've personally used it for rules lite rpgs when running one shots. I've borrowed heavily from it for my DnD games. I've also enjoyed many a night playing it straight out of the source in the 2d20 world. This collection is a pricey investment, but worth every penny. Happy gaming Dog Brothers!
