what period would you like to see more scenarios or material set in? Uther, Anarchy, boy king, etc....? :)

Caerwent and Caercolun. Essex in the Uther and Anarchy periods. There's lots of Saxon deviltry going on in these areas and I'd love to give the player knights the opportunity to cause some massive bloodshed and mayhem.

King Lot as an alternative to Uther, leading up to the battle between him and Arthur with the wicked Margawse as a backdrop. This brings Cumbria and the North into a more prominent position and a lot of battles, political maneuvers during the Anarchy phase.

I had a campaign all set for this, but the group fell apart before I got around to actually running it.

This is a great idea. What i like about this is that in the North and at this time, you dont have to worry about such a rigid fuedal hierarchy and there is a lot of untamed and uncivilized lands so Politics take a back seat and the players might be able to get more say in day to day affairs. plus I always Liked LOT. He was cool. :)

During my first major campaign, I had one group in Logres, one group in the North under lot, and a third floating group, during the anarchy. they were each played for many years leading up to the Boy King/Conquest era, at which point the penny dropped with my players. I was called many names when they realised they would each have characters on opposite sides in the same battles, and some of their favourite characters were destined to lose... One of my finest gaming memories. And they called me evil - muahahaha!

During the last campaign I played in, one of our major characters was involved with Queen Margawse, even to subtle rumors of ...., but during the anarchy phase, there was one specific point where he had to play his loyalties to her, us, and to Arthur all against each other to remain true to himself.

It was a glorious time. I can agree with Darren, if could be evil.
