the problem is that while you can limit the spread of magic, technology
has this way of spreading within a few years. once the scro start using
these weapons in combat, the entireity of known space will be using
winchesters and revolvers within a short space of time.

flintlocks, baldly put, are lousy enough not to affect the game too
much. late 19th century weaponry will render existing weapons largely
obsolete.

no more swordfights. no more dwarves with axes. no more robin hoods or
william tells. no more knights in armour.

that's the flavour of the game. that's what you'll lose.
