Fantasy?

[Homocommando]

I looked at development history and in the very first posts I see something about Ankhyrnia, elves, etc.
Interesting... Are there any mods that return fantasy to modern urw?

I don't know of any, though I think the old Shamen mod had magic stuff in it?

URW began as yet another fantasy rogue-like, but I think Sami saw the market was saturated and began to develop in a direction he knew about - living in the woods in Finland.  Far more engaging than elves and all that shite 

I remember a few years back, someone trying to tell the devs that their timbercraft timings were way out.  So they did a video of I think it was Erkka, splitting a trunk into boards to prove the point.  Where else do you get that kind of dedication to realism?
