Intersting conversation from both Laur and Phystarstk.
Laur: Although I agree to the most of what you are saying, you have to consider that the reunion of the churches was always something to ponder and maybe something to achieve. They have been made many tries (all failures) during the life span of Byzantine Empire to reunite the churches. Even today there are conversation between the the Patriach in Constantinopole and the Pope in Rome. So the reunion would be more historical accurate (if someone could say this in a fantasy setting) than the conquest of Rome.
If there is a solid Byz. Empire at the time of this hypothetical event, the changes should be vast (both good and bad) for the catholics and orthodox (and maybe for the other christian religions). I don't know exactly what the changes would be and if so big changes could be handled with the editor.
Well, Phystarstk says this change could be only by the force of arms... I say it is not necessary....
Just to ponder...

PS I really enjoy this thread!
