But that's actually France, not pseudo-France, isn't it?

Ah, yes -- I was thinking the introduction of devils, etc. would qualify but yeah, it's France with a twist, not a stand-in for France.

There's also the Val-du-Loup module for BRP. It is set in the Ardennes forests, so not necessarily France per se, but definitely a French-speaking area. I took a look at it, and it is a fairly realistic medieval setting, with a decent amount of fantasy. Never played it tough.

Hmmmm...that sounds oddly familiar.

There's a local game over/up here called Mhar, which pretty much has several pseudo countries.  Not sure if the author released the France analog, yet.

Bretonnia in the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay universe is very well done. It is a Dark Age-inspired, swamp-ridden bastion of feudalism ridden with plague whose people worship a local deity called the Lady of the Lake. Think Camelot, but with a grim & perilous twist.

Ars Magica has a pair of supplements that cover portions of what is France today.  I haven't looked at them closely, but some of that game's other books are ok. Mythic Europe is very much pseudo-historical as far as I'm concerned.

Let's see,
Faith & Flame: The Provençal Tribunal [Toulouse, Gascony, Arelat (A little bit of Iberia too)]
The Lion and the Lily [Brittany, Normandy, Anjou, Aquitaine, Paris, Flanders, Picardy, Champagne, Burgundy]

Ars Magica stuff: described campaigns & adventures = not so good, setting descriptions = pretty good and easy to use with another game. Oh yes, only get the things from Lions Rampant or Atlas.  You'll avoid most of the bad that way.

It was interesting to read En Garde! get a mention, since I was just setting something up new for that this week.

Does your game have a pseudo-France since it is emulating WFR?

For now, the book is entirely settings agnostic, treated how early editions of D&D were. No implied setting within, but the Gamemaster's section will include several analogues. Clark Ashton Smith's Averoigne may be included, providing that the rights are open.

Don't be a tease. Tell us more.

My burgeoning En Garde! campaign?  I'm beginning one in the Dutch Republic in 1629, with Frederik Hendrik, Prince of Orange and those exploits leading into  the height of the Republic's Golden Age.  What a great game in that booklet.  It is just detailed enough, without so deeply specific that would bar its use for somewhere other than France. Its going to be a good break from fantasy and science fiction. It also has a number of different elements and focus than the norm.  Players had a good reaction so far.   Hopefully there won't be too much poltroonery by the characters.  Got to encourage the players to read some of those Harry Flashman books!

You made a fun point about the Commissioner of Public Safety Bren. A lot of creative bits in the rules, beside good solid game design.  It is a rarely sung gem, in my view.

Interesting. I'm not sure how easy it would be to adapt the En Garde social climbing to the Dutch Republic.

I've never read the Flashman books.

Easy.  Makes more sense even.  Upward mobility and all come into play among non-nobles much more.
