I was reviewing the rules for lore skills today when I reread the, "Determining the Scope of Lore" entry, and something I read clashed with several adventures I'm running- The rules for lore specifically say, 'One Lore subcategory won’t cover an entire country or all of history," but I thought I recalled several adventures that used <Country> Lore or even <Continent> Lore, and going through the adventures I have on my phone in preparation for GaryCon, sure enough, I spotted an example of each. Now, I'm not dunking on Scenario writers here . They've got a lot on their plate. But as a GM, it bothers me a bit that I'm asking players to use Lore skills they can't actually have. In some cases the solution is simple- Just use the relevant settlement as the lore skill. But one of the adventures actually had both <Country> Lore and <Country's Capital City> Lore at the same time (The latter offered a lower DC). Should I just not mention <Country> Lore as an option then?
