Good preview. And the bookmarked dates seem to be well-chosen. I only wonder why nearly all begin with January 1st. Are all the exact dates unknown?
And is it an option to use the Christian system instead of Ab Urbe Condita (AVC)? I am interested in history and it would make it easier to compare my progress to what happened in real history. Of course the Roman system adds flavor - but only when you play the Romans.

Doesnt look like theres more Germanic tribes at newer start dates.

 

[Berrrie]

What a coincidence. I just read the preview... I thought it was a well written and balanced preview with some good information about how the game will play

 

[Hallsten]

Interesting, it really looks good...

 

[cocodtim]

can't wait to try the game!

 

[richtern]

Its a great preview. As previously mentioned it offers a good amount of insight into the game play.

Not much new info in this preview, or maybe I've simply read everything available on the subject already?

I agree, Stratege, ability to turn BC/AD would be cool, esp. when you play non-Romans. And don't add 'olympiads' (another system of counting years) or I'll go mad

That would be cool. Ability to choos between 3 different dating systems.

Gief olympidias so i can play my hellenistic nations correctly. 140/1, 140/2, 140/3, 140/4, 141/1 and so on.

 

[Sol Invictus]

It all sounds excellent. Anxiously awaiting release.

Look at the screen carefully. Esp the part where it says starting date. I suspect that you will be able to configure the exact starting date to whatever moment in time you want to begin.
