We do have a decent number of players right now, but not too many yet. There's still quite a bit of open space. There's nobody in Scandinavia, Iberia, Anatolia, Africa, the Middle East, Hungary, the eastern steppes (kipchaks, alans, etc).

Mind you it won't be necessary to fill these positions to start the game. But the start date is set for Monday of next week, March 5th, to give us some more time to let these spots potentially fill.

I'll be sending out a pm to everybody today with some minor clarifications on sending me turn orders and how/when I'll carry them out.
