Game played while hiking today

What would the Flight of the Heron characters most want from our time?

Keith Windham: Good raingear! <3
Ewen Cameron: Hmm. Better agricultural equipment, perhaps? Though I can't imagine he'd be much for modern industrial agriculture, which means basically no agriculture in the Highlands...oh, he would want the prospect of Scottish independence, of course!
Alison Grant: Modern contraception and childbirth care. Canon doesn't tell us about what her pregnancies were like, and we don't see her having hugely many children (yet), but so many women did, and I'd like her to have a choice about it...
Margaret Cameron: Modern inheritance law, so that she could have inherited after her brother if need be.
Archibald Cameron: Germ theory.
Bonnie Prince Charlie: Duffy's brick of a book, so that he could study the campaign and see if he could make it turn out differently.
The Duke of Cumberland and Major Guthrie: Well, I'm sure they'd like automatic rifles and modern bombs, but what I'd like to give them is that international court that could try them for war crimes...

Even without the context, those are pungent answers!

Hee, I can imagine! A short-hand introduction to canon, perhaps...

Really nice thought-experiment!

I love Keith's wish especially. And most of the rest are on-point. I don't think BPC would want anything out of the modern world though - it's not as though he'd like being a powerless monarch.

Archibald Cameron: Germ theory.

Aww, I liked them all but these were the ones I really loved <3

Glad you liked. : ) Yes, Margaret Cameron is the one who should really have inherited Ardroy...she does the work of managing it, after all.
