Note about gunpowder weapons:

There are records of early weapons using gunpowder. The first recorded shipment of guns and gunpowder is to England in 1314 AD. The Medieval era offically lasted from 350 to 1450 AD, so there were early guns, though they didn't work very well.

We will allow guns, as long as it is specified that they are from the medieval era and are not used as modern weapons.
