Is it different from than to "Philippa Gregory" the story?

First edition had more skills, like language and culture, for each of the of the backgrounds which were deleted in the next editions. 3e is the oldest version I would recommend.

Thank you, Baba. These are great maps.

I wish I had the skill and talent to do maps like you do. The most I can do is put the knights shields on the Salisbury map to make it easier to see who owns what manor and who are their neighbour's. Is Proceate compatible with Photoshop? I would love to be able to use your maps, if you wanted to share them.

That was kinda my point. Except I was assuming most forum dwellers were less than 40 - 50.

Like what Hollywood, or the movie / TV, industry does. You know like they changed history with Braveheart, Pearl Harbor, The White Queen and pretty much everything that has been made in the last 40 years....

Book of Sires is good. Book of Warlord, I'd just use the chart for different appearances for NPCs.... Estate and Warlord will give you economics rules but, in my opinion, they aren't great. I think Morien has posted something about not using hundreds. His advice is usually worth considering as he looks at things from a player's perspective. I think he either wrote the rules for the economy system but from reading his posts, I get the feeling that whomever edited it, they should have left it as he wrote it. I could be wrong but just judging from his posts.

Both comments appear before I allegedly went off topic as I was accused. I happened to agree with the second including the idea that you don't need a bunch of theoretical books to explain the economy. Just do what works for you and you players. Is it wrong, probably no different than what has been published. Anyway, I will note that necroposting, one topic for thread and whatever are militantly policed except for some.

I suspect there is a language issue between us. I was just expressing my opinion about a potential new edition. If this type of feedback isn't important, should I delete by post for you? Got to say that I rarely prefer yes man when I'm on a forum.

With thanks to Gaius Marius and Sulla, in my opinion. Supposedly one of the reasons Marius was unpopular with the Optimates.

I am writing this just to express my opinion. It is not my intent to hurt anyone's feelings or suggest that anyone is wrong. I for one have no intension to buy an edition 6.0. I have found that games that keep changing editions are only doing that to remain relevant and to squeeze a little more money out of the gaming public. I am not saying this is wrong of them but that I will not be buying it. I know that the most common reasons given for new editions is to correct errors and fix awkward rules. However, I have to say that I haven't really witnessed the truth of that. Some basic mistakes keep finding their way into the new editions. For example, simple things like kilometers and miles conversion. Has estates or holdings gotten any better from the first rules through Lordly Domains to Book of Manor, Estate or Warlord? Debatable. The system has changed but to me it seems more like changing the ingredients without figuring out the recipe... The thing is, I have bought everything in either hardcopy or pdf from first edition to 5.2 with a few exceptions. Don't need feast rules, book of battle 2, book of armies 2, maps, and forms. Why? I'd never use them. For example, character sheets; I use my own excel sheet during creation. Then I have found that most want a lot of the data in pencil on a character sheet that comes with the game. Most I do is paste their arms in it before printing the blanks... Just me and the people I play with... As to the topic of this thread, if you want to do accounting, if you are playing with me, lets just look at the new system and make it work for us. Who cares if it is accurate according to some medieval model or if it is according to the rules. If it makes sense to us, and you have fun with it? Works for me.

I was thinking in the field and not in a fortification. 😞 Does anyone still use the levy rules from previous editions? Or is there just the knight and the three footmen? I haven't played in a while so don't really have current first hand experience in game.

But isn't one knight worth ten foot soldiers? Go with the knight.

I am happy that no one suggested the "Sons of Anarchy" meets King Arthur movie.... 🤮🤮🤮

And Ironside The Red Knight of the Launds. Ironside became a knight of the Round Table. Malory mentions him at least twice more, as one of the guests at Guenevere's small dinner party and as one of ten knights to ride a-Maying with the Queen when Meliagrant ambushed her. He also appears among the would-be healers of Sir Urre.
