Beyond the Road of Kings, Season Seven: Tides of War (Roleplay Server)

Our Discord: Beyond the Road of Kings

Into the west, unknown of man,
Ships have sailed since the world began,
Read, if you dare, what Skelos wrote,
With dead hands fumbling his silken coat;
And follow the ships through the wind-blown wrack-
Follow the ships that come not back…

Beyond the Road of Kings presents; Tides of War

Be prepared to embark on a genuinely immersive Hyborian experience, in Beyond The Road Of Kings . Inspired by, and based heavily upon, the lore established in Robert E Howard’s stories set in Conan’s world of Hyboria, Beyond The Road Of Kings is our roleplaying server that is now embarking upon it’s Seventh Season, continuing our tradition of providing a player-based experience that allows you to walk the very same streets, prowl the very same jungles, and brave the very same elements, as Conan the Cimmerian might have.

Become The Legend You Were Meant To Be

With an expansive library of mods, such as Agony’s Attic, Juvilia’s Crabby Fashion and Juvilia & Agony’s Salon, Evil’s Cabinet, Cookie’s Immersive Armor, Barbarian Barber and Female / Male New Faces, and of course the limitless possibilities afforded to us by Tot! Custom, you will be able to create the character that you have always wanted to create for the ancient lands of Hyboria.

An incredibly generous building limit, fuelled with quality mods, such as Pythagoras, Beyond the Forge, Beyond Rustic, the upcoming Beyond Cities, Desert Town, Sand and Stone, Emberlight and SvS, you will be empowered to design and build anything from a humble hunters hut in the Frozen North, to a palatial estate in the hinterland. If grinding materials is too much a chore, a rich, player-run and site-regulated market economy means that if you have the coin, you will find what you need. Or, if building and decorating is not your style, you can simply purchase a ready-made home within our many population centers, so that you are never too far away from the action.

Once you’ve created the character of your dreams, you will immediately have access to a generous Starter Pack, Starting Coin, and Levelling Potions so you can dive right into the action with whatever level of difficulty as you please.

With our remarkable dice system devised by our keenest Conan experts, which form the foundations of character design and combat events, you are now empowered from the beginning to be every bit the warrior, the hero, and the legend as Howard’s protagonist.

So, what else is in it for you?

A bespoke RP dice system that focuses on dynamic characters and swift action resolution, written in a way that is deeply evocative of Howard’s work by a professional in the gaming field.

Although PVP is enabled we offer a unique system that takes advantage of mechanical PVP and/or dice based PVP.

Events may be mechanical PVE with staff members playing antagonists, they may be solely dice based or a mixture of the two.

An excellent suite of character customization, building and deco mods.
Our Steam Collection:

You also have the opportunity to own your own business within Messantia itself as well as its disreputable “sister city” of Pallos (formerly Murun).

With this season’s focus on trade, sailing, piracy, and the machinations of the nobles and merchants of Messantia and the boisterous and dangerous streets of Tortage where the Red Brotherhood clashes with the Crimson Tide and pirates feud and carouse, you have the opportunity to fully immerse your character into the world created by Robert E. Howard.

So how do we do it? Using the wonderful Savage Wilds map and a system of fast travel we have reimagined the map thus:

I’ve been a Conan Exiles tragic since it was in EA, and I’ve bounced around a lot of different RPing servers, across all types, settings, maps, and RPing styles—which as you might is quite the diaspora!

BTROK is the first place that I came across that felt truly grounded in its portrayal of a Hyborian World, free from the limiting (and literal) confines of the Exiled Lands, free from Funcom’s contrivances. My characters felt like a part of a place and time within Howard’s stories, and I’ve not left for over two years. There’s no place like BTROK.

As someone who only knew Conan from the old movie starring Arnold, I was a bit nervous to come into such a lore-focused server for my first taste of CE. I can tell you that I really never see myself playing anywhere else. The admins have created an amazing place to play, with a unique dice system, and a beautifully designed environment. And though it is as Howard lore adherent as possible, our lore keepers are amazing folks that not only are willing to help you workshop your ideas to fit with the world as Howard wrote it, but they enjoy doing so.

So why should you join this server this weekend? I mean, besides the fact that it’s an awesome REH lore focused server with gorgeous environments that let you play everything from haughty Messantian nobles to slum dwelling paupers and everything in between… plus pirates? And Nordheimers in their natural habitat with other Nordheimers?

Okay we get it. Starting with a new server is a huge time investment with a lot of stuff you have to do before you can even get into the thick of things to find out if it’s really for you. So this weekend we’re sweetening the pot. Join us and get your character app approved and on top of starting gear and some coin you’ll get:

  1. A Bearer Thrall. Why Do You Want a Bearer Thrall?

Because with the inclusion of the mod Improved Thralls and Quality of Life Bearer Thralls just got a whole lot better! This mod allows a couple of new options for these thralls, and both are are game changers. First is turning the thrall into a Lamplighter! Your bearer can be customized however you like and on the Radial Menu, you’ll see an option to turn them into a Lamplighter that will turn lights on at dusk and off at dawn, which not only helps immersion but can help with server performance as well.

Secondly, your bearer can help you create a more organized inventory and workflow. By placing your bearer near one of the new Organizer Chests, you can fast deposit your inventory in a variety of ways , be it all into one chest, or sorted into nearby chests or crafting stations with like items!

But that’s not all! You’ll also get:

A set of improved crafting stations

A Pet

A building kit OR a Medium size home in one of our cities or Nordheimer settlements.

There’s never been a better weekend to set out on The Road of Kings than this one.
