I started a similar scenario earlier, (0-500 AD), but the mainproblem remained: Rebels. They're either too weak or too strong, and I can't find a way to beat that. If you have a solution, I'll gladly join (BB can also be an issue as max starts out as negative if you begin in 0 AD)...

We'll start from 1 ad then, have to think about rebels.

Adding 1000 years to every date (going from 1000-1700) should decrease the rebel and bb problems while still keeping the historical dates visible.

Thanks for the tip!Has this been tested on use or is it an estimate

P.S:What does BB mean?

Badboy

would it be possible to use another calender/timescale than the christian one, perhaps the Roman, from the founding of Rome...

About my scenario, a lot of things is finished except for the Roman Empire... a lot of events, especially for China...

One thought though, you should end the scenario in the 7th Century, before any muslim invasion, perhaps even as early as 476 as Lofman is making a scenario covering 476-819...

That's a good idea.I didn't think that!But the problem is that most people don't know anything about Roman calendar.Anyway, do u know any websites where i can get info about it.

No websites really... but I was just thinking of 753 BC as year 0 and making 0 AD year 753, but perhaps it's better to add 1000...
 
Mayan calendar's only good if you're going SERIOUSLY far back
If you used the Mayan calendar year 0 AD is something like the year 3374
 
That Mayan thing is quite good.Any info about it on web?Should i add Asian and American countries, or just cvoncentrate in Eurtope.Also, do i put barbarians just as natives or states like:"Goths" "Langobards" etc?
 
Yo man!Cool map.I believe this means you are in the teaM?I'm going to countryside this weekend, but i'll plan my landtech there and i post it next week.
 
Yeah, I guess I'm in...

We have to decide about religions.
Major religions in the Old World from 0 AD to 500 AD:
Chrisitianity, Enlightened Paganism, Arianism, Monophysitism, Zoroastrianism, Judaisim, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism

Christian family:
Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, Reformed, (CRC)
Asian family:
Sunni, Shiite, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism
Others:
Pagan

I suggest we'll leave pagan for the pagans... but what about the others?
What 0 AD religion would be best simulated in the same way as CRC is in EU2, as no provinces can be CRC-religion, only states...

What about this:
Christian family:
Catholic - Buddhism
Orthodox - Judaism
Protestant - Zoroastrianism/Mazdeism
Reformed - Hinduism
CRC - Confucianism (It might not be historical to give the Conf. a CB against Zoroastrianism/Mazdeism and Hinduism, but I could live with that)
Asian family:
Sunni, Shiite, Buddhism, Hinduism, Confucianism
Should be divided among
Chrisitianity, Enlightened Paganism, Arianism, Monophysitism,
Is there something between any of these religions that could be simulated by the Shia/Sunni CB?

Roman Empire's peak (as extension and population) is well in the second century. Its collapse happens in 476 AD, at least of the Western Roman Empire.
 
The problem with using Catholic and CRC for anyone is that there's the whole "CB on anyone who owns Rome or attacks the Papal States" thing. I don't think that China or Tibet should have a CB on the Roman Empire or whomever is at war with whomever we use the PAP tag for...
