Currently, you have to really push hard if you want to match the historical expansion of certain Empires, with you as the undisputed hegemon of your local area bordering other hegemons in theirs.
At most, I'd support expansion until the end of the Julio-Claudian dynasty and Year of Four Emperors. If it was to be expanded, I'd not want it to be by very much - maybe the death, rather than ascension, of Augustus, so by ~40 years. That aside, I think the current timeline is fine. after the first Punic War, and maybe one right before the second.Ĭlick to expand.The rise of Christianity takes place several hundred years after I:R, so you could comfortably stretch another 100 without ever touching on it. Perhaps the way to do it would be to extend the finishing date by 150 years or so, but then add one-two new starting bookmarks slightly later - e.g. I know I started with a small country and so if I'd started as a big one, maybe the timeline wouldn't feel so restricting, but even with another 100 years, I wouldn't have completed a WC or anything, I just would have been able to realise the fruits of some of the work I'd done earlier in the campaign.īasically I was left wanting way more! I'll play more campaigns of course, but I hope that some point in the next few updates we get another 100-150 years added on (at least as an option). It felt like I was building towards a real showndown with Egypt for control of the Eastern Mediterranean, but the game was over. Compared to the pacing of EUIV or CKII/III, it feels rushed and short.Īt the end of my campaign I was probably the biggest, most powerful country around but it was very close - Maurya and Egypt were both of my scale and power. There are elements plenty to improve and flesh out but I think the biggest one that must come up soon is to extend the timeline by about another century or so. Pop growth, movement, conversion, levies, legions - all fantastic. I had a blast! I think IR is a fantastic game, and particularly that it has a really robust skeleton to build further onto. I went Syracuse -> Sicily -> Magna Graecia -> Hellenic League (the last one was accidental as I didn't realise that's what the mission tree did). For all the files in the common\technologies folder, copy and paste the last lines, adding new tech levels and increasing the expected year by at least 20.I am sure this one gets a lot of suggest, but I wanted to raise it after finishing a run on the most recent version of IR as Syracuse.
To stop this, you have to add new technology levels. However, if you manage to play long enough, the technologies will run out and the game will crash. To extend the timeline beyond 1821, open the file common\defines.txt in your EU3 folder. Heir to the Throne and Divine Wind do not modify the game's time frame. The second expansion, In Nomine added roughly 53 years at the start, expanding the timeline once more, now from 1399 to 1821. In the original version the time-span was from 1453 to 1789, and Napoleon's Ambition extended this to 1821. The timeline in Europa Universalis III has been changed several times. This article is accurate for the latest versions of EU3, Napoleon’s Ambition, In Nomine, Heir to the Throne and Divine Wind.
