It had to be adaptable but has a focus on a time period.Probably what throws me off the most is comparing Westerns to Medieval because the connections made in his most recent post I can understand a bit more in regards to "the world". Otherwise i was seeing Clint Eastwood in plate mail, Rooster Cogburn with a battleaxe, and Apache and Comanche living in castles. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f615.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:"  data-smilie="5"data-shortname=":confused:" />The game is medieval, but obviously not the strict adherence that Coldwyn would have liked at the core, or in the published adventures. But it didn't set out to stop you from making it that strictly historical if you so wanted to. That was/IS the beauty of D&D. Heck you can Buck Rogers (TM LW and the DFT) it if you really want and go Spelljamming.</blockquote>
