That sounds pretty cool actually!!! With the -ian switch could you play all of the factions on the map at the same time? For example start as Denmark, do all the things you would normally do in a turn and then switch to the next faction, then the next one, and so on without ending the turn.

How would battles work? I am thinking that when you finally ended the turn you could only control the upcoming battles of the faction that you end the turn with. Still it sounds like a lot of fun and additional variety to the game!!!
