[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 9200170, member: 6716779"] So I'm running an ancient Greek campaign set around 432 BC on an alternate earth. I've tweaked some events eg instead of Persians invading it was the Zaharans. Zahar is basically Sumerian/Arkadia so The dates a bit vague but said invasion was 50ish years ago. Anyway the theme of the game is Fate of Atlantis. The weapons and equipment us ancient greek era but the Atlanteans have things like full plate. They're currently near Delphi and are uncovering the manipulation of the Pithia (the prophet of Apollo). It's possible they prevent the Peloponnesian war equivalent. Bit old school by the time they're done they'll be name level. And possibly have Atlantean artifacts, weapons, armor etc. They've meet a merchants who's been to Latium. It's "full of barbarians who will never amount to much". One of them joked they coukd go there and found their own Domains via conquest. So I'm thinking they could unite the Greek world and found something like the Byzantine Empire 700 years earlier. The heartland would be Greece and Asia Minor but back then the Greek world also included colonies in France, Italy, Black Sea, Libya etc. Thoughts to on the nose, fun, stupid idea? [/QUOTE]
