    Default Comet in Bavaria, c.200BC

    http://www.astronomy.com/asy/default.aspx?c=a&id=2519



    I was wondering, could we get one of those news things to pop-up, saying something like "Celtic gods punish them with showers from the sky?" It'd be pretty cool.

    That'd be a bit too hard, they modders have got a lot on them. Its not a scripting thing, is it, that, its coded into the engine I think.

    One thing I think we should do is increase the rate of disasters like floods and earthquakes, anyone know how to do that?

    This reminds me, how about a "Halley's Comet" sighted event? I believe it was 87BC, but I'm not sure. It was this that spurred Pontus's Mithridates and Armenia's Tigranes to forge the empires they did.
