    Well, he certainly kept up with his iron.

    Back in those days it wasn't easy to plan for retirement....
    After the Terracide... 300 years from today, artificial space colonies orbit distant stars while terraformers labor to create new worlds for humanity. Bizarre aliens come to trade exotic goods unknown to Terran technology. And the lifeless, charred husk of mankind's homeworld slowly cools in the empty, silent void of a dead star system. Welcome to the rest of the Galaxy; It's Dark Out There.

    William Marshal's active tourneying days, the ones that began his legend, were probably in the 1170s, maybe late 1160s (I'm going from memory here, so am being a little vague). By the 1180s he'd made his name, become the Marshal and been rewarded with the hand of a widow in marriage.

    I'm just in the process of creating a border castle/town as a base for my FH campaign. I'm using the Marshal's castle of Striguil (Chepstow) as my inspiration.

    There has to be a way to uparmor the rhinos and make them into spectacular heavy cavalry mounts for a squad of machine-gun-wielding combat biologists. Envenoming the rhino's horn is just icing on the cake. Old Man

    Sounds to me like you've played Pendragon at some point.

    It would be fun to use Pendragon to create a Wars of the Roses style campaign. Perhaps with some supernatural elements to spice it up.
    "But some of us awake in the night with strange phantasms of enchanted hills and gardens, of fountains that sing in the sun, of golden cliffs overhanging murmuring seas, of plains that stretch down to sleeping cities of bronze and stone, and of shadowy companies of heroes that ride caparisoned white horses along the edges of thick forests; and then we know that we have looked back through the ivory gates into that world of wonder which was ours before we were wise and unhappy"
