So you will not add anything with the bookmark - will you add anything with future patches / DLC?
Who on earth is clicking the disagree button on this? It's an entirely correct post, the Islamic world is portrayed in a very underdone and stereotypical fashion that's hardly been altered since Sword of Islam's initial release. It really, really needs some love, far more so than the pagans who Paradox seems to delight in lavishing attention on.
My only request is that when you do get around to adding achievements, please give me my golden survival achievement to match the set!

I am looking forward to them adding one for Iron Century as well.
Already speculating on some proposed achievement names.
- Iron Centurion
- Iron Centuries
- Five Centuries

The early tenth century was such a tumultuous time period for the world, the Byzantine war machine was gearing up for reconquest, the Persians were sadly being destroyed in blood mills, the last of the pagans were still kicking in several countries up north, crusades were still not a thing yet, and Turkmenistan region was charging their old Turkic lasers. I look forward to this new bookmark with much anticipation, however I must dare ask when will Imperator:Rome get their other start dates? There's over 600 years of playable start dates in CK2 and only 1 day of start date in Imperator. I understand its a brand new game, but I'll still be playing Crusader Kings 2 for many years to come in the future because Imperator lacks all the proverbial bells and whistles that makes CK2 so full and immersive.
NOT a fan of this one.... We nee new Bookmarks for sure - in EARLIER periods to give us longer games.....
936?
Who is going to be the Emperor of China in 936?
936 is the time Shi Jingtang of Later Jin overthrow (more like: usurp) the Later Tang under Khitan help.
Which means it can be quite difficult to get the balance of the Khitans, the Later Jin and Later Tang (if they are still alive) right. At least, the current OP China is certainly not the case in 936.

Tuscany already answered number 2, but regarding 64-bit; we are still looking into it but have no definitive answer on whether we can make it or not.1) Will there be 64-bit update? I desperatly want more people could play this beautiful game.
2) Please, tell us there will be new achievements. This date and wonders are essential for them!
The age and all the things that's been added since the game was first released means that there are a lot of things to update and more potential issues we need to handle.
We will update you guys when we have some news on the subject

I actually think a 10th century start date like this one is quite welcome.
We don't need longer games (who even plays a complete game, even from the 1066 start date?). We need one where Catholicism doesn't completely collapse (jury's still out on this one, but not having a giant event stack in the process of conquering various tiny Anglo-Saxon states or having them overwhelmed by heretic rebels because they are too small to muster an army to stop them should help), but at the same time, the various other religions are strong enough not to be the pushovers they tend to be in 1066.
Part of me suspects they may be trying it at least in part as a test for a possible CK3 start date choice (since it would allow Norse pagans to be a thing in vanilla CK3 without). The other (more optimistic, perhaps) part of me suspects it's market research to see if there is any demand for other new start dates. Either way, I look forward to giving Otto a spin.
No. I like this start date. It's an interesting start and has been needed for a while.
I also agree I would like to see a 632 start date or something pre-islamic but that is more full expansion pack thing.
This doesn't need any new features. That's why it's free. Earlier start date will need things like culture/religions for north africa, pagan religion for arabia, maybe a new government type, events for Islam, events/decisions and content for Monothelite, etc.
Dunno if somebody asked already, but are we going to see any new bloodlines associated with this start date? Otto I is a good candidate for one, but having the blood of Eric Bloodaxe sounds poetic almost, even if he's just been deposed in Norway, and not Northumbrian material yet.
Will this be free update or tied to an expansion like The Old Gods or Charlemagne? Also is this right around the corner or is this months away?
A couple, yes. It will be talked about in one of the DDs next week.
I'm betting the Bloodline of Alfred of Wessex will be one of the new Bloodlines...
