Yep, it's been around for a couple years or so? I've seen about half of it
(second half) -- seemed to be way too long (like the link you sent says).
Lots of political stuff. Lots of royalty stuff. Lots of fighting stuff.
Lots of court stuff. Really cool home of one person (if I'm remembering
correctly).

I wish they had gotten footage of some of the more active,
non-rapier-fighting things we do, like equestrian, dancing (both good,
period European stuff and good ME stuff--no belly bunnies!), hound coursing,
fencing, archery... but then, a) maybe they don't do much of that stuff in
Caid, and b) maybe my memory is clouded with time and they did show stuff
like that.

Basically, I remember thinking "Wow, that'd be neat to have running at
recruitment-type demos (like student organization fairs)!" when I heard
about it first, then upon seeing the half I saw thinking, "Wow, it'd need to
be cut to about fifteen minutes for that purpose..."
