Earth Middle Ages?

Ive noticed a jump in the number of 'past tech' RP's taking place, and I think it might be nice to get all the people under one forum, where we could set some standard rules and get some good 'ol fashioned Grand Campaigning on.
We could accomidate both Charecter and National RPers, if theres enough interest in both, and so forth.
Of course, interest is required to get the forum going as well, if perhaps ten or so people express interest in this I think we can get it started.
Im thinking that, seeing as the world map at this point is A) Somewhat unknown and B) Has rather fluid boarders, we could let players claim areas, rather than kingdoms (excepting well known and easy to define ones, such as France, England, Spain and The Ottoman Empire).

Oh, and for the record, Ive done this before ;)

What year would it be?

Most likely some time in the 1400's, give or take 100 years ;)
IM not sure if this would be a 'timed' RP with constantly changing date, or just a standard un-timed version where we play in a specific period.

If I can use Tocrowkia in this Earth, I'm in.
If I can't, then I'm out.

Link, Spooty?

And it depends on what exactly Tocrowkia is and whether or not it fits in a fourteenhundreds-ish environment and is at least somewhat historically accurate.

Tocrowkia is a big continent in the middle-ish Atlantic area. It's an ancient land, first found by Carthage. How ever the people there are not colonials, but rather natives of the land since the last Ice Age. It was an established state roughly in the thirten-hundreds by a nameless European power whom wanted the Tocrowkians there for slaves and to robe them of their natural resources. They battled for freedom, and won of course. But they still hate Europe, and make frequent raids with small boats full of soldiers and Rangers.

well actually they all died, so i didn't keep the links, but they are all from here, there was first Taledonia's civilisation type RP's of which there were three, then there was a Medieval RP made by Philanchez (ironically sparking off events which would lead to the region that i currently reside in) then there was a breif period of nothing followed by Kaduna's Civilisation type RP which set the stage for Taledonia's rebuffed Medieval RP, which then lead to Philanchez's rebuffed Medieval RP, followed shortly by Olde Earth and then being capped off by Spooty's PT World character RP which doesn't really count and of course your EMA, but by all means go ahead, i seem to be a curse to these sort's of RP's so i won't join in, though PT does seem to be the way everyone is going these day's which has it's blessings.

Then no, most definitly not.

And I figure this would be a good way to consolidate things and get some continuity. Invading the whole of Europe on a whim will have consequences now ;)
