 **The Middle Ages** (MA) is one of three eras that the Player can set their game in.
-MA is characterized by iron age technology and a medium level of magic in the world. MA games strike a balance between Early Ages (EA)  games and Late Ages (LA) games, between the power and diversity of the mages, number of magic sites, the size of populations, and the degree to which humans have come to dominate the world.
