Yes, they were based around Medieval which is why they use swords, bows'n'arows ect

Bragoon

Although they do wear some varieties of clothing that weren't invented for several hundred years after the traditional Medieval era.

Medieval style, but it takes place over hundreds - possibly thousands - of years.

Does it matter? (we are talking aoubt when Redwall took place right?) but I'd say Redwall took place about the time of the Renaissance era.

No, it doesn't really matter, but one could say Redwall itself doesn't matter, since it's fictional.  The point is that we're curious.

I try not to think about it too much, but when I get going I picture an early medieval era (saaaay... 700 AD onward) with a good handful of Italian Renaissance (1400 AD -ish) and a slight pinch of present day England. :D

Age is relative.  Maybe Osu is 75 and deserves to call you a kid.  ;P  No offense to Osu, naturally, you don't sound that old.  

Pfft, I just realized that's totally not what Osu just said to do.

I think I'll be an 83 year old man. >8D You are correct, of course. Back on topic.

Who's to say the books don't take place in the distant future, long after man/civilization have run their course? I recall some minimal discussion on this a while back, something to do with something Riggu Felis said about being the only wild cat...
