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.

Quote from: Whitewings;873416Well, I'm trying to come up with a term that would indicate "more-or-less Middle Eastern" but doesn't tie expectations too strongly to a specific culture.

Ignore the haters. "Arabian fantasy" covers it quite well. "Arabian Nights" would be OK except for the pedants who will want to insist that something is a few years too early or was completely gone by the actual historical time implied by that title, even though its stories were collected over centuries. Similarly, I'd suggest "low tech" or "pre-gunpowder" or such rather than "Bronze Age", for the same reason.
