CWBP 2 : Era and Technology

[Falconius]

I'm not sure where you are going with that Azelor. What is the goal there?

[Azélor]

Different places have different level of tech, so here they are.

[Falconius]

I guess. Does it need to be elaborated on though? If we know that the guys with the most advanced tech are using steel swords, isn't it obvious that other less advanced societies may still be using bronze or, stone?

[Azélor]

I don't know maybe it's too elaborated but I think it could be useful.

[Scoopz]

So what's the common consensus on the GENERAL technology level?

[Falconius]

I was hoping to get more than simply my template and Azelors amendments before we came to a consensus on anything.... Or at least some people who agreed with them...

[Azélor]

To make a summary of the suggestions so far, I would say it's a mix of technology between the end of the late middle ages and the renaissance.

Gunpodwer is really rare and inefficient, no musket. But fireworks are ok.
Transport: the caravel is probably the most advanced ship

other than that, I don't know what else need to be clarified.

[Falconius]

Just go with what we got then? Alright. Makes me kind of sad though.

[Scoopz]

Well, if we're proposing a late medieval technology level, we could definitely take a few liberties. Especially for gunpowder or engineering stuff.

[Azélor]

What da ya wanna meen ?

I think that things like the Ottoman monster bombard or the Culverin also refered as hand canon for a more archaic versions (it's even more primitive than the arquebus that is the ancestor of the musket) could exist but only for a country that is considered technologically advanced.
