Re: Charlemagne's Paladins - roleplaying in the 8th century
You know, every time you write chainmail DanHoward dies a little inside... :)
Yes, mail is ok but not mail-and-plates - right? Longswords in GURPS are longer than 40" - is that really something which occurs in the 8th century? Joyeuse, the Emperor's sword, is in GURPS term a broadsword.
The only Frankish coin around seems to be the denier, worth $4 (240 to the pound). There may be other from other realms, of course.
