Do you want a list of all the governors in 395? I've just gotten my hands on the Prospography of the later Roman empire...so hopefully I will be able to find all those people who were governor at the start of the campaign.
Hi, do you do in mod, characters like Aurelius Augustinus and others?
P.S. Still working on crimean characters. It's pretty hard)

Specifically what characters?
Do what ever you can in that area, I'll bolt it onto what I've gotten done thus far.

Progress Update,
It looks like I should have a 0.1a Version done by either the weekend or early next week. Just a few culture and religious issues to fix and a few titles to be added in.
This version will be pretty broken, I can't vouch for it's long term stability and it will be insanely unbalanced, but it will be playable.

Heh, you might have to wait a bit longer, given that a SWMH update is coming out at the same time, and I want to integrate that first.
Progress Update:
Sassanid governors are absurdly difficult to find. Don't worry, though; I found a few major noble houses, so worst case scenario I'm going to throw them in as governors, since they have to go in somewhere.
In other news:
Bad_Haggis: I saw your posts in the thread about overhauling the Byzantine Enpire to use Catholic succession for the duchies; have you made any progress with your plan? I pm'd the guy who was writing said mod to ask about his system, but I never got a response back. I'd like to implement a system similar to the ones discussed for the Sassanids, since their empire had a similar level of centralization, but I was wanted to know if you'd already started on the government stuff before I went ahead and started from scratch.
Still waiting to get the data recovered off my hard drive, unfortunately; might be a while longer before I find out just how much I lost in the crash. Still have my desktop to work with, thankfully.
Edit: just noticed -- SWMH update coming soon. Any idea if they're touching Persia? I've already confused myself enough trying to port history files around...

That's fine, there isn't a lot of info anyway, so as long as there are at least a few playable characters it's good.
I'm probably going to end up using something similar to the Imperium Graecorum mod, as it doesn't confuse things too much.

I haven't got a working mechanic done yet, but I might as if we can use theirs and possibly change it around a bit to suit the time period. It should work for the Sassanids too.
It's Britain only IIRC.

I'll try and upload the current version I'm working on at the moment to steam for, it will have Cultures and Religions mostly done, so you don't have to mess around with the province files.
Have you thought of using modified mercenaries as a representation of the standing army of Rome?
I've encountered this thread with some interesting ideas.

I am still a little confused by what you are trying to do. Are you creating the Comitatenses as a mercenary order that can only be recruited by Roman governors and Emperors, or are you creating them as levies?
Hm. So you'll be having Governors, the Emperors (and I hope you call them Augustus..) being able to appoint them and maybe removing those who are..well. Less then able to serve the Empire in it's best means.
Will there always be an event that basically changes the Imperium Romanorum into the Basielia Rhomanion? Or will the Byzantines just be called Imperium Romanorum but, overtime, will become more and more an Imperium Graecorum?

Yeah, it'll be Augustus.
I can localise the East to change from Imperium Romanorum to Basielia Rhomanion if the Emperor is Greek.
I'm still tempted to have Imperium Romanorum Occidentalis (west) and Imperium Romanorum Orientalis (east) while they are Roman cultured.

That's actually not a bad idea (if a Goth were to take over that is).

Okay, voting time. Should Julius Nepos have the Western Imperial title? The East viewed him as such, but very few people do nowadays.

Personally I'm apathetic, the only thing is that it would be easier for me to do, given that I don't have to code an event giving him the title if he gets Italy.
