I ran a 2nd edition D&D game in medieval Europe (I think the game started in December, 1505 in Florence) and kept it as historically accurate I could. Well, with the inclusion of magic. Wizards were, of course, hunted by the Church as witches and I eliminated the divine spell-caster classes for the most part. Most "Priests" were either fighters or 0 level humans, although there were a few divine casters, but they were very rare and tended to be restricted to the Healing sphere only. (And these characters were also usually hunted down by the church as witches.) The PCs wound up attempting to hide a genuine divine spellcaster (who happened to be a child) from the church witchfinders. It was years ago, and really the only thing I remember clearly is that the PCs accidentally killed Martin Luther while trying to rescue him from a Roman prison (black power is NOT your friend if you don't know what you are doing.....) and had to start the Protestant Revolution themselves. THEY, of course, did it by decapitating Pope Leo X in the middle of the Easter Mass. It was like watching Quentin Tarentino rape the History Channel. ...now more than ever do I wish to learn the arts of tabletop gaming.

It's easy, although you have to find a group. Possibly this can be done online, although for some areas this is surprisingly tricky.
