Game Introduction

Welcome to the world of Byzantium...the last remaining piece of the great Roman Empire of long ago. Earth, you will find is an incredibly rich and detailed game world, more so than anything any writer could come up with. We have libraries of source books for detail in each of our communities...imagine the possibilities!

While this is a historical setting and the world is a fairly low magic one, there is plenty of room for fantasy/mythological elements and magic. It may be a bit more rare than in worlds you are used to gaming in but to me it only makes it that much more special.

This is a 1st Edition AD&D game set on Earth in the year 970 AD. This is also a very human centric game and a bit sexist too I am afraid but only in the name of historical accuracy. I have very specific house rules...please refer to that thread to learn more about them. Don't worry they are fun!

If you want to play a non-human in a human world then you can expect a rougher time..likewise a female warrior with a strength of 18/00 will be looked on as a freak as well....while I am flexible enough to bend the rules of history and society, I am not that flexible!
