Barbarians of HeroQuest

I make this list for S&G. I use Dragon Strike figures along with the HeroQuest set. I added the the Temptress and Succubus figures to make things more interesting (plus I have really good figures for them). This is about playing HeroQuest with Barbarians of Lemuria. This is not about making BoL play like HQ, but using the open-ended BoL rules to play HQ.
