Miniatures: Crom....More People and Places.

A new Guard Captain and unit of Guardsmen have joined the Sultan's payroll, and a new Gatehouse was constructed just for them to guard.

 The Gatehouse can double as a watering hole for caravans and weary travelers.

 Wild beasts from the steppes of Turan have been know to attack even the most stalwart of warriors.

The King of the Beasts looks on as his Pride does the hunting.

 The Turanian Hoard has also been known to strike an unsuspecting caravan or poorly guarded city gate.

Cultists guard the entrance to a lost temple of Amoroth,


Inside the temple the High Priestess performs a ritual to summon their dark god.


Conan is on his way to disrupt the ritual and defeat the cultists.  He can't shake the feeling that he is being watched.
