Has anyone played it? If so what is your opinion on this RPG?

Are you talking about the D20 thing from, I think, Mongoose, or are you talking about the AD&D Conan adventures that came out way back when?

If the former, then I've not played them, but I've heard nothing but good about them. What little I've managed to read makes them definately well worth the price if you've got the money.

If the later, skip them. Not very good at all.

Mongoose Publishing have released a '2e' version of their D20 Conan RPG (http://www.mongoosepublishing.com/home/series.php?qsSeries=7). I am not familiar with it, but my understanding is that it is very similar to the 1e version. The 1e version is pretty good; if you like D20, then you will probably enjoy the 2e Conan D20 RPG. Here is a link to some very good fan work: Conan Conversions (http://hyboria.xoth.net/adventures/index.htm)

Personally, I preferred the 1e cover illustration.

To answer hamlet's question, Matthew has it right.
