The Pet Peeve thread

[I know thats not necessarily true IRL, and not PC, but it would be in keeping with the period. The exception being Joan of Arc perhaps]

Well actually its mostly true - while there were quite a few notable warrior queens throughout history (e.g. Boudicea, Artemesia to name but two) i cant really think of any for the setting and period of M2TW - which is due to the social situation of that period rather than any 'un-PC ness'.

Of course thats not saying that medieval queens didnt lead their nations successfully in times of war, just that they didnt tend to do it in the field.

Joan of Arc wasnt a faction leader, but definitely makes the case for a female general or two in the game, even if only as a special character.
