What Date Does The Campaign End?

I know that in Medieval Total War the game ended, or the turns ran out, thus ending the game, around 1452 BC or something similar.

Does Rome Total War have a similar thing? And if so, what is the run out date?! I personally HATE those dates, even if I was up to the year 2004, and it was still Roman times, I wouldnt care, I just hate deadlines in a game such as this.

I've heard the date 14 AD thrown around (the death of the historical Augustus Caesar), though I'm not sure that anyone has actually run up against that deadline. I know from experience that any date up to at least 240 AD is valid, using the command-line to modify the date and advancing a turn.

Tamur is right, it's from 270BC to 14AD, and I'm pretty sure I could build a 50 province empire, disband all of my armies, give 49 provinces away, then build it all up again before the 14AD date. It's a lot of time, and the game moves pretty swiftly by TW standards.

I'm stuck with some nine cities, and am embedded in a hard war vs. all of the Romans. I dont see myself making a massive Empire in anytime soon, at least 50 years, 100 moves, before I can start it going well, if I can defeat these guys.

Also, how do you make the end date longer, if its needed?

Siris I am in the same situation as you but fighting both Scipii in Africa and Brutii in Greece (the greeks were my allies), but after you defeat the romans everyone else will grovel before you. The romans are the hardest to defeat and after them you can roll over the weak barbarian factions to gain provinces.
