SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Mongols were a couple thousand years later. Not sure what this refers to if anything, and Googling doesn't turn anything up. Possibly mixing up the pre-Iron Age Indo-European invasions of Europe, the late Bronze Age collapse (not involving horse nomads) and the Turkic Asiatic horse clan invaders during the late Western Roman Empire, including the Huns.

Quote from: GameDaddy;1107451Agree. Mines, valuable metal, mineral, stone, wood, or ore deposits almost always attract people who then find a place close to the resource with a sourced of fresh water first to camp, which then turns into a permanent settlement over time.

If we're talking the Middle Ages, most people were peasants, many of them tied to their lord and their lands. They neither had the necessary freedom nor the know-how for mining. But then again in fantasy anything goes.
