And, if you're too mean to buy it <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> they even put it all on their website for free, which you find at <a href="http://www.thekyngdoms.com" target="_blank">http://www.thekyngdoms.com</a>6. <a href="http://www.enworld.org/shop/index.php?do=product&productid=47&source=Publisher%20Recent" target="_blank">A Magical Medieval Society: Western Europe</a> by Expeditious Retreat Press: An amazing piece of work - there is just so much detail!  A seriously fantastic resource for DMs which helps set out a fantasy social framework.  There's far too much in it to implement it all, but its just one of those books you keep going back to, using a bit more in your own campaign each time.So, that's my half-dozen.  What are yours?</blockquote>
