In the final descriptive words on each race, an indication is givenof their
technological status. These descriptions needs rewriting. The language is
terrible, and the various cultural levels referenced do not mesh with how
those are described in the DMG.

In the DMG, blackpowder weapons are described as Rainessance Weapons. Going
by the race descriptions from the new document, Ainureans, Brechts and
Khinansi would all have those, while the dwarfs would be moving on towards
even more efficient guns.

IMC, I have included some early guns - used by Ainureans and Khinansi in
siege and on Galleons, and mastered by the Brechts ontheir roundships. But
that is not Birthright canon, and the race descriptions should match BR
canon.

I think more accurate descriptions of the technological level would be:

Ainureans: Late middle age (plate armor)
Rjurik: Middle Age (Full chainmail)
Vos: Dark Ages
Khinansi: Late middle age - with a not that they follow a somewhat different
line of development (no plate mail)
Brecht - Early rainessance (possibly with early cannon on their ships -
check those fire values)
Dwarf - Late middle age (while skilled, their technolofy is not very
progressive)
Elf - Late Medieval (The elven knights on the war cards actually wear plate
mail)
