The High Middle Ages	comment	Stretching roughly from about the Norman conquest of England (1066 and All That) to the early 1300s, but most often imagined as about the 12th or 13th century, this is the era of The Crusades, Robin Hood, and fat, lecherous, irascible, but good-hearted friars. Also home to knights, beautiful princesses with anachronistic hennins, and tall, spire-tipped Gothic architecture (note that most versions of Arthurian Legend are depicted as if they were set in this era, though strictly speaking he belongs to Late Antiquity). Expect to see a corrupt churchman or two wandering the landscape burning witches, heretics, and pretty much anyone who doesn’t agree with him. In actual history, this is the high spot between the Vikings and The Black Death. The modern nations began to take shape, and with them the foundations of the legal system and government bureaucracy. The first great European universities were founded as a renaissance began flickering into life, and then disaster struck. A combination of internal strife and climatic disaster, capped by the Black Death, brought the brief golden age to an end. Whole villages were swallowed up by the advancing wilds as civilisation retreated. It is probably because it ended so badly that this period is remembered so well, with the halcyon days before the Black Death stalked the land, hence the idealised popular image of this time, which hasn't changed much in five centuries. The setting is likely to be a mythologized England or France, though there are examples from farther afield. Jerusalem, which had pretty much been ignored since Bible Times, will now also be used as the stage for all sorts of spectacular battles involving scimitar-wielding Saracens and sinisterly handsome Knights Templar.

It's also an unusual example since the game focuses on the historical Hashshashin (or more specifically the modern incarnation of the Assassin Brotherhood) as opposed to European knights like the Knights Templar (who are the main antagonists of the franchise).

The High Middle Ages / int_69ed37fc	comment	The Abrafaxe came to the 1270s during the final third of the Don Ferrando arc. After going through Palestine, Egypt and Mesopotamia the Don disappeared and the Abrafaxe continued their journey via India, Malaya and Japan before reaching the Yuan Empire in 1282 (January 1983-December 1991). Following that a leap in time brings them back to 1176, around the time of Emperor Frederick Barbarossa's defeat in the battle of Legnano (No. 193-207). Much later they return for the Templars arc (No. 358-381, set ca. 1118), which involves the beginnings of The Knights Templar and a search for the treasure of Prester John. It is followed by the Johanna arc (No. 382-405, set ca. 1250), in which the Abrafaxe meet Albertus Magnus and encounter Nicolas Flamel (who had appeared under a different name in the Templars arc).

The High Middle Ages / int_8e3995ae	comment	The High Middle Ages are probably the most popular era with the creative collective of the German magazine Mosaik: During the Digedags era, the protagonists travelled to the 13th century, where they met Ritter Runkel. The arc (vol. 1 No. 90-151) is still the longest in the history of the title. Covering the years 1284 to 1286 it takes the Digedags and their friend Runkel to Italy, the Byzantine Empire, the Middle East and back to Germany. The Abrafaxe came to the 1270s during the final third of the Don Ferrando arc. After going through Palestine, Egypt and Mesopotamia the Don disappeared and the Abrafaxe continued their journey via India, Malaya and Japan before reaching the Yuan Empire in 1282 (January 1983-December 1991). Following that a leap in time brings them back to 1176, around the time of Emperor Frederick Barbarossa's defeat in the battle of Legnano (No. 193-207).
