[QUOTE="Coroc, post: 7438229, member: 6895991"] My current GH campaign is loosely reflecting 30 years war RL Situation. As such it is not in the "Dark Ages" but can be very dark. The opponents are of Course Iuz and his orc armies bolstered by demons and members of his cult vs the free world, which is in no way united to be an army of good against this threat.The orcs i use are not your typical chaotic Horde but like Landsknechte, a well organized army. I use quasi renaisance tech enhanced with a bit of steampunk, means automatons, but they can be powered from various sources, soem are good some are evil and the Forces of Iuz try to get every Advantage for their Goal. Elves are few and remote, dwarves are few and mostly underground, most halflings are depressed, playable races are humans, gnomes, halfelves, halforcs and tieflings of hellish descendance. So it is a post middle ages/Standard Fantasy settings kind of feel, their are e.g. clockworks and telescopes and the like, but the mood is very dark from time to time. [/QUOTE]
