Instant Encounter Critical campaign right there :)<br /><br />The idea of Romans versus Indians is also pretty awesome! Directly made me think of ways to make this happen. I mean, let's say this could have happened. The Romans made it over there in force and established a colony. The first question to answer would be how nobody knows about that today, right? And that's where a great mystery could unfold: the Indians won and decided to destroy every evidence of the Romans ever being there and the Romans also decided to destroy every evidence that it ever happened. Why and how? That might be a great campaign waiting to happen (Call of Cthulhu, maybe?). Thanks for sharing :)Jens D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18394303166081684904noreply@blogger.com
