Anyway to extend the campaign time limit?

[ScottishAdam]

I always play the full campaign. I have had the game for years and have never even clicked on short campaign never mind played it. The longer the time capacity for a campaign the better. However is there anyway to extend the time limit for the full campaign. Not because it is too short but I would just like to comfortably create an empire rather than eventually rushing it at the end to complete it?

it does not bother me that it may become unrealistic if I am in 2000ad and I stilll have halfwits running around with spears.

is there any text file I could edit etc? Even to reduce the amount of years progressed each turn

Cheers

Others will know better than me, but I assume its a simple case of editing the descr_strat file and changing the end date to whatever you want? Back up original files first though to be on the safe side



start_date -270 summer
end_date 14 summer
brigand_spawn_value 10
pirate_spawn_value 28

Might be worth reducing the rebels and pirates whilst you're having a tinker? Late Edit: which is done by increasing the numbers.. eg 80/80 instead of 10/28

Indeed , changing the date in descr_strat.txt is the key , as an example :

start_date -210 summer
end_date 200 summer

But I don't thing it's very entertaining to play above 300/400 AD ,until those years you'll have conquered all factions available in the game .

Unless you're a total genius in being crap at playing rome total war.
