Klein remains a character as well, which I’m happy about.

I think Klein is a just a traitor.

Well, I’m sorry you’re having trouble at work. Take all the time you need on this. It’s not worth the stress trying to force yourself to write while real life nonsense is keeping you down. So Drakia & Co are gonna make a play on Europe while the US and Japan are slugging it out? Or is something...

I’d say re-roll, since you seem to be implying that the current result would hamper the narrative. Also, I agree with the suggestion of ditching the 20 sided dice in favor of a 6, with narrative bonuses added onto the result. I feel like that’s a good compromise between sheer randomness, while...

Well, that “nice coat of paint” sure makes it a hell of a lot better than it’s equivalent OTL.

I find myself rooting for Albinus. Awesome timeline!

He wants someone to right a timeline with this premise I think. Alexanderus, if he was more assertive and decisive, successfully getting out from under the control of his inner circle and his mother (maybe a more successful or at least a not disastrous Persian campaign?), I think he would have...

From what I know, they fought each other plenty prior to Muhammad uniting them. And there were attempts after his death to destroy that unity. Why would this stop?

Except plenty of those arabs would also still be employed by the Romans. You yourself admit that that the only likely way a Arab conquest would happen would be for various tribes to travel north ad hoc, looking for new land due to population pressure. If this was to happen(and your lack of...

I don't even know if you have to "fix it". Give Julian a long reign (like after a successful war with Persia), and I am pretty sure his reforms would start to stick. He only ruled a few years as Augustus iotl. He was young, competent, and after a victory over Persia (likely leading to a puppet...

You completely avoided my point. Who or what could possibly unite the Arabs in time to exploit the temporary weakness of both empires after the Great War?

I mentioned this before but I’ll say so again. Who or what is going to unite all of the Arab tribes ittl just in time to exploit the war weariness of the two superpowers to the north of them? I mean, even if you contrive some alternate uniting force that sweeps across Arabia, why are we all...

Which to me, means they wouldn’t be able to get nearly as far as the Arabs did otl. The Persians and Romans would more easily be able to recover and strike back against various different bands of Arab raiders then a united force out for conquest. So, I think large scale conquest for the Arabs is...

Russia and the Steppes for me.

This is hardly a Byzantine wank and he already said earlier that the romans wouldn't be dominating the Levant and middle east al la Heraclius. The main pod of this timeline also requires the romans to do well at least initially thanks to better relations with the crusaders. I don't want the...
