Thread: Playing past 14 AD...
Well, in my current Roman campaign i'm at 93 BC, and i'm still having loads of fun. The Marians really revive your game, and it's awesome playing right now.
However i also want the Imperial reforms to happen, when they should, around 27 BC, but that leaves only 45 years of playing with them. I really want to know what happens next. I remember someone said that nothing happens, and that you can continue the game, but then again someone said you can't continue it. What happens then? Does the script end?
Also how many of you have the experience of playing with the Augustan units? What changes after the reform? I mean in a useful way, not you get the new units etc... Which units stop being recruitable? which units stay? Any help would be welcomed

I think the script stops, so other factions won't get financial aid and other stuff the script does won't happen.
I guess if you got 14AD you will be forced to got bsck to the menu, because it is simply, the end.
Any confirmation?
BTW, the year 0 does not exist

Yeah, learned this the hard way last week in college. Made a misscalculation on an important paper, when comparing how much time passed between certain falls of rome. My mentor wasn't to angry thoughBTW, the year 0 does not exist

Naw, the script really doesn't end, does it? I've always been told that you can easily play past 14 AD...? 
Try a search, I am almost certain the same question was asked and answered half a year ago. I am also almost certain that the answer is you can play on, but the script stops, including seasons, or that the RTW script itself stops, so you cannot at all.
"Search" is your friend...
Edited to add, I did the search for you. Here is a thread that presumes to give the answer before the Roman-flaming starts (and people wonder why I dislike the Roman-haters).

This has nothing to do with Roman-haters! Argh! haha, but I have to say it's sad to hear that one can't benefit from script when playing past 14AD. Too bad, but hey, it's been a fun game!
yes you can ;p but with extremely oppresed AI
Can't you just edit the script to allow you to play longer?
The season-script won't work past 14 ad, but I don't see why the other parts of the script shouldn't keep working.
Has any 1 even lasted till 14AD in a campaign?
hehe I know I haven't - and still I worry about it every single new campaign...

I thought I read somewhere that there is a 66 B.C. crash when playing as Romans that can't be overcome. Anyone know if that's true? I'm about 50 years away in one of my campaigns and have been starting to wonder about that.Well, in my current Roman campaign i'm at 93 BC, and i'm still having loads of fun.

Not true. A guy posted that he had completed a campaign to AD 14 a couple of months ago.

Maybe he was just intentionally leading them to disaster 
Seriusly, is there any way to "cheat" the script, so it works longer? Make it think that it's a 100 years less?

Good news!Not true. A guy posted that he had completed a campaign to AD 14 a couple of months ago.
Those good news can be found here.
However, why on earth would you want to play past 14 AD? Most of you will have already blitzed to the VC before (including me), so why bother?

Well i won't... It's 95 BC and Cyrene has just joined me. The levant won't fall for another 30 years at least, after which i will launch an invasion on Gaul. After Gaul, Egypt will became a province as well. But I still plan to "try my luck in N Germania" and finish conquering Spain with my Imperial legions.Those good news can be found here.

I play EB during my sleep now, in my dreams. This way I can use the time I used to spend during the day on more important endeavors.
