Orwell temperament has various extensions to the 13 limit.

Tuning Spectra

These spectra suggest possible tuning choices. For 13-limit orwell, the 5-limit minimax tuning featuring pure 6/5 eigenmonzos seems like an excellent choice, as it's right in the middle of the least squares range and very close to 13-limit least squares. Pure 13s, using the 16/13 eigenmonzo, might also please some people. For blair, pure 5/4s using the 5/4 eigenmonzo tuning is very close to 15-limit least squares and in general in the middle of the action. For winston, sticking with the 11/9 eigenmonzo minimax tuning seems reasonable.
