The Wrath of Anu
Two audacious thieves, a deserter from Gunderland and a Cimmerian Barbarian, have forged a reputation among the city-states of Corinth by stealing riches and plundering caravans on the Road of Kings.
A corrupted priest of Anu, playing both fence and police spy, has ratted out the pair of thieves. The Gunderman is quickly captured and hanged. Conan, in his youthful impetuousness, avenges his associate’s death by looting the temple of Anu and eviscerating the priest responsible.
During his escape, Conan falls victim to “Anu’s Wrath,” a powerful spell that torments the Cimmerian with terrible hallucinations. He has only a short time to find the priest responsible and break the curse.
During a religious procession, Conan gets his chance: the priests of Anu, their escort of soldiers, and the strange man-ape they parade along the way make a stop at an inn.
Objective
To win the game, Conan must exit the Inn by reaching a street area with the curse broken before the end of turn 12. If Conan dies or exits the Inn without the curse being broken, the player loses.

Event
When the Event tile is activated, resolve one of these events based on the number of priests that have been removed from the board:
- 0-1 Priests: Add 1 colorless Bossonian Guard
to each reinforcement area
.
- 2 Priests: Add 1 colorless Bossonian Guard to the reinforcement area
outside the inn. All colorless Bossonian Guards gain
2 movement points they must immediately spend.
- 3 Priests: “Unleashed” Add Activation token 5 to the Reserve zone of the Book of Skelos and place Thak in the area indicated by the setup diagram. If the “Unleashed“ event has already occurred, this activation is wasted.
- 4+ Priests: Add 1 colorless Bossonian Guard to the reinforcement area
outside the inn. All colorless Bossonian Guards gain
2 movement points they must immediately spend.
Special Rules
Game Board Rules: Standard game board rules apply, including the Bar areas rule.
Angry Overlord: The Overlord activates twice every turn.
Interrogation: If Conan is in an area with a priest, he can move 1 gem from his
Reserve zone to his Melee Attack space to roll 
(no rerolls allowed).
This roll is not affected by hindering. Resolve one of the following effects based on the number of successes shown on the die:
- 0: The priest resists interrogation; no effect.
- 1-2: The priest talks; flip the token. If it is the high priest, the curse is broken. Remove the priest’s token from the board.
- 3: The priest dies before talking; do not flip the token. Set it aside and only flip it over when Conan leaves the Inn.
Furious Overlord: If the first or second interrogated priest is revealed to be the high priest, immediately resolve the “Unleashed” event. From now on, the Overlord activates three times every turn.
Thak’s Fury: At the start of turn 8, resolve the “Unleashed” event. If Conan enters Thak’s area before the “Unleashed” event has been resolved, immediately resolve it when Conan enters the area.
