I suspect a lot others are like myself in not only using the web to obtain specific information useful for playing BM, ie medieval weaponry, warfare, history etc, but also attempt get a feel for medieval times in general, such as everyday things like food, clothes, games and lifestyles, and likewise enable you either add more "colour" to your char or a RP'd NPC's personality etc.

So to that end I've decided post a few of those sites I use myself, so that others can either try them themselves or/and add their own to the list.

I've only added posted nominally basic ones, as while have quite a few bookmarked a lot of them are "user specific" in a way,  ie perhaps a page (or even a paragraph) I've found while working towards a specific end, so not much use to anyone else.

All the sites are virus and clickjacking free etc, as likewise are their subsections.

The meaning of "King of the Bean" can be found on the medival-life site in games :)
