About this episode
The episode discusses the ongoing influence of medieval history on roleplaying games, particularly through the lens of the Ars Magica game.

The Games From Folktales podcast gives you new, odd, useful material each week, for roleplaying games set in European-styled fantasy settings. A range of Ars Magica materials based on the Games From Folktales podcast are available on Drivethru , Itch , and Patreon .
