How far have you ever played a EB game?
I usually get to around 210 BC and bail.
I got to 243bc as Pontus but have a desire to start a new campaign for some unknown reason.
I got to 118BC, once. Though, I'll usually quit around 200BC.
around 200 for the sweboz, lusitannan, and carthage.
i only got to 240ish when my pontos campaign was ruined by those nasty selecuids. they besieged all my cities at once, it was dreadful.
187 BC as Romani in 0.82 with AI balancing mod. A beatiful game very close to History, then out pops 1.0 so it's back to beginning.
I began my EB-career with v0.80. I had started several campaigns, but never finished one. either it was because of the 'i didn't realized there is a script i have to activate' (before i come to EB i played the RTW 1.5. therefore i was used to ignore the adviser and find out by myself), or it was to easy (too much money, M/M) and i got bored. When EB 1.0 came out, i had my longest campaign running. i think i reached 189 BC. It took me a little while to make the decision to quit. Well, i did, i was to curious for the new stuff. In my current campaign it's 215BC and i hope this time i will reach at least the next reform.
I usually play 'till 220/190 B.C except the Romani campaign and the Seleukid campaign which take longer and maybe my new Parthia campaign wich I intend to finish this time.
I've got to 208BC with my latest Romani campaign, but I've just developed an overwhelming urge to start a new game. I've no idea why.
Yeah, the Grey death strikes again! I'm glad their my fave faction.Quote:

Yep that's about my limit, about 2 months of playing a campaign(almost daily). I don't think I have ever got below 200 BC in any campaign. One AS turn took me 2 evenings.Quote:

I'm role playing as Rome, so managing under 20 settlements every turn is fairly easy...so I plan to play well into the Augustan Reforms... maybe into 100 BCE and more... XD
IIRC you need at lest 65bc? (ish) for the augustans. Unless they are no longer tied to a date in 1.0
They have the 'at least' date of 125BC.Quote:
