Please, no gunpowder. Hellenic culture, art, ships [ trier], statues, masonry, food [ olives, oil ]? Yes!

The endeavor to understand is the first and only basis of virtue.

In my mind, using gunpowder would only be a feasible option for an actual ARMY.

A small band of warriors or pirates or whatever would probably find it faster and easier to just use bows or melee weapons, considering how blastedly long it takes to reload a black powder rifle.

Thinking back to the old Norse raiders who crossed an ocean in their longboats to raid and pillage, only using simple weapons.
