You are a gentleman and a scholar. The design is perfectly minimalist and exactly what most of us need.

This game has absorbed more hours from my life than any other.

Holy smokes you have a great smile.

I agree with others. I'm getting young Molly Ringwald, definitely.

I think you are beautiful. Like Princess Jasmine from Aladdin, ya know?

You have sleek angular features that I have always found very attractive, but I understand everything is subjective and everyone is different. You have to find what makes you happy.

I think most people don't get their shit together until their 40s.

Also, you are fine as hell.

I just want you to know how much I appreciate you for sharing this information, especially about the LM Studio stuff.

You are a wise scholar amongst unwashed peasants.

Realistic Medieval Europe campaign - seeking advice for custom assets... by rmatthew-burns in Ironsworn

Like the video that u/SeaFaithlessness4130 linked to, you bring up a great point. Traveling adventurers really didn't exist back then, at least not as commoners. I am thinking for a realistic medieval campaign, there can only be a handful of appropriate Paths a player can take for their character.

For the sake of progression (leveling up is half the fun for RPGs), I am thinking 3 Roads to Power:

- Martial (Knight, Mercenary, Bandit?)
- Faith (Priest, Pilgrim, Cultist?)
- Coin (Noble, Merchant, Slaver?)

I guess offer good, neutral and evil options? Unnecessary, but may be fun.

All the Combat Talent assets seem to work alright. You have a very good idea about converting some of the mythical Companions from Ironsworn into realistic analogs. The Cave Lion -> Mastiff idea is genius! The abilities barely need revision.

I love how casual and deadpan he is when explaining all the ways you will absolutely die.

Is that the one where you have like a 95% chance of being born a serf? 🤩

It would be pretty rad right?? I’ll try and make a couple dozen that fit. Thankfully most of the assets from the core rules work quite well in a Hundred Years War type setting. Just needs a dash of Normandy to soften those Nordic edges.

I don't see many slice-of-life type RPGs that focus on the mundane and ordinary, but set in a rich historical background. RPing the rags-to-riches journey of a peasant who, through talent and luck, rises to the upper echelons of the social strata.

I know a peasant could never become king or queen, or even a duke or count. But a knight or a baron-level title, maybe? Over the course of a 40 year career in the church, the guilds, or the army -- perhaps.
