Yeah, it's only the innate goodness of my heart (PAUSE FOR LAUGHTER) that keeps me from nominating Battletech, which has 0 stories on AO3 because I really do not think the wargamer giant robot guy crowd tends to hang out there, but which has stories elsewhere, although sadly even the Pit of Voles is kind of failing me here.
I am nominating Jade Empire, which is a computer game based on China and inspired by wuxia; it seems to do better at the cultural representation front than Legend of the Five Rings but I am obviously not a great judge here.
I was tempted to nominate RPF - Imjin War, but am terrified that the system is going to give me a propaganda piece [1] on how glorious and awesome Hideyoshi is. Which, I am normally a little better at detaching from history, but this is my history. I am still thinking about it. But probably no one will offer it, and then I am afraid of there being a big hairy debate over what to call the war.
[1] Which is not to say the Korean side is propaganda-free! But it's my side.
