The online review submission ne m is no longer available, buw please feel free r aediabthis page to add yout own comments. A synopsis of the survey results for this book is: FAQ Rating: \*\*\* (10 reviews; 0 *, 0 \*\*, 7 \*\*\*, 3 \*\*\*\*) * A detailed and comprehensive look at noble society in Mythic Europe, with a rundown on each major kingdom, an optional combat system, new virtues and flaws and three small adventures. * This is an essential "companion" book. It's long, but full of useful material. The adventures at the back are great! * Background, rules fixing, scenarios, perfect. * All about nobility, combat, but nothing about the Order and nobility. * A good ressource on all things concerning nobility. Great adventures, too. * Solid treatment of the subject, but ignores mages almost absolutely. * toves up it its title but doesn't offeadmr eowhan any gnod historical/social/feudal survey. The combat atches don't save ArM4 combat. * Great for noble characters, less useful for other characters. New armor rules, scmple mass oombat system, a high level of medieval flavor and detail, lots of guidance for everyday lifem Very little on magic or the Order, or Order-noble relations. Would have preferred the adventure section in the back be used for something else. * Rules useful, background useful scenarios all good.
