Historical Dresden Settings?

(1/2) > >>

The Codex:
I have just had an awesome thought could you do 1920's dresden, I mean there is nothing mechanically that would change?

Also and inspired by some comments people made about city settings, you could pilfer so much info from Cthulhu Setting books....

Does anybody think that a different time period wouldn't work?

is there an exisitng time line of known facts about different fractions in the dresden world, when people signed the accords, who was around when, that kind of thing?

iago:
Naw, you'd just have to rejigger your notions of what technology is out there and available.  Facts are thin on the ground about the earlier timeline of things, though.

Mal_Luck:
It'd certainly be interesting, not my thing but it'd be interesting.

Kemmler and his students would be around, probably look into any event Ebenezer claimed he was behind from around that time: Tunguska, etc. If you do it in say the 50s, the event Morgan mentions in TC could be interesting to witness. Hell, a Wizard's first reactions to the Manhattan Project would be very entertaining. Depending on you guess how old Ivy's grandmother was (I think she was younger?) you could have Kincaid pre-Archive bodyguard duty. Perhaps any major plague outbreak could be explained by the Denarians. Adventures and lives of the previous Knights of the Cross.

There is alot that could be done.

Buscadera:
Another thing to remember is that if you go back far enough, wizards would be able to keep current with technology until about the 1950s.

Korwin:
Wasnt it established that Wizards always had problems with new technology?
So in 1900 they would have problems with tech newer than 1850?
