It was like that in vanilla and we've had no cause to change it as of yet. Extending it more than a few years would mean expanding militaries and we don't have the model space for that.

that's long enough if you ask me I only got there with one campaign and since EB has 4 turns a years it's really long enough.

Thats the kind of no nonsense, to the point answer that i was looking for.By the way since the issue has been raised could you clarify what do you mean by-expanding militaries.Since Iam unaware of any military revolutions taking place in the era that would necessiate the need for new unit models.
In the three years of war, necessity gave birth to invention. During those three years, we built bombs, we built rockets, we designed and built our own delivery systems. For three years, blockaded without hope of imports, we maintained engines, machines, and technical equipment. We spoke to the world through a telecommunications system engineered by local ingenuity. In three years of freedom, we had broken the technological barrier. In three years, we became the most civilized, the most technologically advanced black people on earth."

Military evolution, in general, is constant and ongoing at all periods in history. Sometimes faster, sometimes slower, but you can't stick every change into a neat package called "Iphicratean reforms" or "Marian reforms" or "Augustan reforms".Iam unaware of any military revolutions taking place in the era that would necessiate the need for new unit models.
Re: Why 14 ACE??
Why not.
After all, the EB folks needed:
1) some place to call a halt
2) some means to make the pain go away. Can you imagine redoing all the roman units to reflect Imperial armor -- egads.
3) 284 years should be sufficient to achieve a continent-spanning empire. If you haven't got a leg up by then, you should go ahead and let the inhabitants of Lesbos take total control.

I'd live happily under the rule of the Lesbian Empire! (If I'm allowed to look, of course.) :)
