>you can't make a historical story like that from something that has very few actual records.
You can, though. And he has.
The problem with /his/fags has nothing to do with the specific period or how faithful to history you are. They're just a fundamentally fickle, and consequently useless, audience. Most "history fans" are actually just celebrity worshipers who have chosen to obsess over dead people. And even when it's not people, it's certain institutions or technologies that they autistically obsess over. And they're just as crazy as the kpop and idol audiences. Any deviation from their ideal is seen as a betrayal and a justification to rescind their support.
I'm a bit of a /his/fag myself. I used to lament about this or that period being overlooked. But nigewaka has been enlightening. I now fully understand why so few people are willing to pander to us. And I no longer think that anyone should. People should just save themselves the headache and do fantasy instead.
Which is an important lesson for shotabros. If you want people to pander to you, you have to be someone they can rely on for support.
