Since both games are pretty much targeted to the same audience, don't you think the will be completed(and thus released) at least several monthes from each other? It would make business sense.

True, buuuut. They could code some programs that say : CK province x= eu province y. So if coutry A owns province x in CK, well This said coutry = country B in eu. So coutryu B owns province Y at the start!!
I'm saying that, but I don't know if that could be done
Originally posted by Crook The only problem with Crusader Kings appears to be a very limited map - meaning no Mongols, no China, no Khorezmshahs, no India. Would've been a lot cooler to have sevral maps to play on.
The Mongols will have to be in the game in some way - if only just appearing along the eastern edge of the map in huge hordes at some point.
As for the Khwarizm Shahs, it depends one exactly how east the map goes. The description says the Urals form one edge - that could definitely include the Khwarizm area if, say, the edge of the map was at 60 degrees east. And, as the game (should these rumors turn out to be true and it is being developed) appears to be less further along in development than HoI, maybe you and I and others interested in the area can petition them to move the border a bit further to the east to ensure Transoxania and Afghanistan, with all their interesting medieval history, can be included. Heck, even a small section added to the side of the map just going from N. Afghanistan to the edge of the steppes to cover this area would be sufficient (ever see the Old Penguin Atlas of Medieval History? It did this very thing)...
As for areas further east, as much as I would like to see them, I can understand why they wish to concentrate on the Europe/Middle East area for this game...

Perhaps but what happened then was more a release of what had been building for a few centuries. But starting the game with charlemagne on the height of his power might create some problems yes so I see no problem with this starting date. Now I get the chance to win Manzikert.
