Im guessing nobody has ever completed it then.

You can play through to the end date, but usually (especially if you start in Early) you will have conquered everyone by then. You also get a "lesser victory" option when you have 60% of the provinces, as well (but you have passed this already).

As for what happens, well I wouldn't want to spoil the surprise .... let's just say victory is its own reward

As far as I remember, the victory screen isn't graphically impressive (wouldn't fit with the overall look of the game anyway) but in any case better than the RTW popup (which isn't difficult...). But I do recall that it was very atmospheric. And it's a full-screen thing, not a tiny popup.

Can't comment on the comparison to the RTW ending, having never seen it, but will agree with the description offered by my learned friend...

This is OT but it came up:

Do you only play MTW:VI Bamff?

Just curious as a) that's cool and b) if so, no reason for you to even look at RTW. After years of experience in MTW, you would just steamroll the whole map.

Yeah, I have to confess that I have only ever played vanilla MTW, MTW:VI, and (just of late) have dabbled with XL.

It is such a good game (IMHO), that I have never felt the need to try any of the other TW titles. At some point I may, but I feel that there is still way too much territory for me to cover here!

Aye, it was a tear jerking moment. Thank god i completed it though it was starting to send me a west.

If you dont have all the lands but the majority, you get a message claiming that although not completing the game in full, you have the largest empire.

How do I know this?
Played as the aragonese and ignored ireland completely after it rebelled.
