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.

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

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

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 :p

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.
