Alephtar Games publishing schedule

[NickMiddleton]

Malory (at least, the period he wrote in)? Shakespeare's plays? Or failing that, Blackadder I?

the Paston Letters are quite revealing AND a primary source - the Wars of the Roses era is indeed ideal for a gaming.

Against a back drop of civil war you have enormous cultural change (Gutenberg's bible is released in 1455), social upheaval (the Wars of the Roses are as much a symptom of the death of Feudalism in England as anything) and the beginnings of radical religious change - the Wittenberg church door might lay claim to be the official beginning of the Reformation, but the later half of the fifteenth century across Europe foreshadows the schism in many ways. Not to mention the rising power of the merchants and trade guilds.

And all that's WITHOUT adding any supernatural or fantastical elements... Mind, I did steel weapon re-enactment in a Wars of the Roses group for ten years, so I'm a little biased...

Cheers,

Nick

The wife is avidly watching a TV series called 'Tudors'... It seems an era fantastic for role-playing!!! (if you are rich & powerful, obviously)
