For those who enjoy RPGs in historical settings, we'll discuss some of the tricks for playing, running, & writing role-playing games set in historical periods.

Many of us are inspired by non-fiction as much as fiction, and if movies and comics are a measure of interest, there's certainly interest in historical action-adventure. What are some of the tricks for playing, running, and writing role-playing games set in historical periods? What are the pitfalls of the same? And how does one prepare? Fraser Ronald (Centurion, Nefertiti Overdrive) discusses his approach and answers questions.
