Hyboria does though tie-in very closely with Lovecraftian beings/creatures, and from the original Howard stories (even as portrayed/expanded in some of the more recent Conan-esque games), had only a fairly limited repertoire of unusual creatures.
Maybe something more generic, like Fantastic Bestiary might work better?

Yeah, but it is a pretty open world where you could include every imaginable creature. PLUS: Since the Hyborean Age is a time of slavery, there might just as well be something with two arms and two legs in said cage, that under rags and dirt might turn out to be quite human indeed...

Gotta be honest I'd never heard the phrase "Hyborean Age" before this thread. Maybe something more generic to describe the theme. Here's some ideas: "Age of Barbarism" or "Deep Ones and Old Gods" or "Legendary Times"

Gotta be honest I'd never heard the phrase "Hyborean Age" before this thread. What?!?! You've led a deprived life, I recommend you find a Robert E. Howard Conan collection, "Iron Shadows In the Moon" is one of my particular favorites.

Or do what I did in high school English nullpointer, and just read the comic.

Instead of Halloween Wars, maybe we could call it "A Song of Fear and Terror: Game of Bones" ?

Is someone interested in May being the Noir hoard? B/W figures and props?
We can name it "Back to Black" or "The Darkening"
If we want to be geeky, label it "1 bit allowed"

Napoleonic Duelists: Red Shield & Gold EagleIncluding officers and enlisted men in dress-uniform. Also spies, diplomats and nobles, etc. I think there are enough civilians in the various One Monk hoards to work for the period, and, as has been pointed out, Patrick's 15s can be used to fight large battles. However, I would really like to get the above as characters for my Napoleonic role playing game. In fact, I may give this its own topic.
