[quote=@Willy Vereb] Does it mean we are back in the 12th century? That would have some...very un-fun consequences. Like the tiny island out far away from Essos never able to interact with any of the other players. Or the absence of castles as we know them, knights in shining armor and crossbows being a rare and kinda dubiously effective weapon outside sieges. Heck, you don't even have counterweight trebuchets (albeit nor you need them). [/quote] That's all irrelevant. We can have all that technology you mentioned, but without guns, because the GM says that's what he wants. Realism doesn't matter outside of History and Slice-of-Life RPs. Moot points.
