  1. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    Maybe you could make Sri Lanka into an allied state of the Romans. I just can't see the Romans letting a potential enemy still exist when all it would take is a half a dozen legions. They could let it exist if the benefits of its existence outweighed the negatives, but I would think some sort of...

  2. README/FAQ: How the Timelines and Scenarios forum works

    Okay, I have a question. Are we (as fans) allowed to post replies in a timeline. Or is this forum just for completed, or close to completed timeliens without any of the bagge that the other forums have. I'm not really clear on that.

  3. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    It was no touble at all, it was fun actually. Yeah, I did forget about Brutus. oops. About the general, oh, I didn't consider him an Emperor because the Senate didn't confirm it. But I guess I was wrong. okay, I'll add them: Caesar 44 - 22 BC Caesarion 22 BC - 25 AD Germanicus 25 AD...

  4. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    Going through the posts, I collected the Emperors and the dates that they ruled. Here is the list: Caesar 44 - 22 BC Caesarion 22 BC - 25 AD Germanicus 25 AD - 37 Parthicus Caesar 37 - 61 Octavia 61 - 71 Antonius Caesar 71 - 118 Hadrianus Julius Caesar 118 - 128 Felix...

  5. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    I like your take on the elephants more than mine. I didn't even think of the signal flags, it works. With the drawing of battles and local maps, a better sense of geograhy and map-making would develop. I mean, that would help Romans in many ways, like the planning of aqueducts and new city...

  6. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    It always fits, your Rome has always used natural features as both defensive and offensive features. Thus, the Romans stopping at a natural break makes perfect sense. This actually paints a picture of the Roman Empire: Even far from the borders one can find the remains of forts and walls. Plus...

  7. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    Didn't you say that Madagascar was colonized about halfway. Did I see or miss something?

  8. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    With heavy weapons on the top in carriages, it would provide heavy reinforcement. In addition, generals could ride on top in boxes. of course communication is impossible normally, but the officer is protected. This could spur on development, the Legions could wonder how to make communications...

  9. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    Cool. The part about the Elephants give me an image of a Roman Legion post-India conquest using Elephants as heavy artillery. It so fits the design of Romans adopting concepts from the areas they conquer.

  10. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    Its good, I like how the invasion of India is playing out.

  11. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    No problem, I enjoy thinking about this sort of thing. Plus its Rome, so its so much better. Hey, if you ever want ideas or just to talk, don't hesitate to email, IM or Y!M me.

  12. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    Just a tidbit of information. In the GURPS Alternate History I book there is a AH of Rome called Roma Aeterna. In that timeline, the writers have Rome using a steam engine to dredge the Nile-Red Sea canal in 121 AD.

  13. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    No problem, I really like Rome and all things Roman. Anyway, here to your questions. 1) I would say that a very militeristic Emperor would go for India, while a expansion-loving Emperor but who doesn't really want to attack those he sees as civilized would go for the Ural mountains. While...

  14. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    There is a timeline at http://www.scaruffi.com/politics/indians.html. This link might help provide you with ideas. The Wikipedia article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_Indian_history may also help. Its seems that any Roman conquest would have to take place either before the rise of...

  15. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    The Romans better invade Sarmatia, you can't let the filthy barbarians win. :D Nice, real nice.

  16. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    This is actually a good question. If China has one of its fragmented periods, and Rome learns about it, couldn't Rome declare war and try to take as much of it as possible. Some of the smaller states might become clients or great allies, but the resource rich areas could be controlled. Just a...

  17. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    Despite it somewhat not being plausible, I really do hope that Rome never falls. Especially considering that the title of this thread is "A much larger Rome that survives until the present day." One of the things I like about this AH is that all boundaries make sense, I mean you use local...

  18. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    Great as usual, really like what you are doing here. But I just noticed something, you have them going to the Coliseum. The coliseum that we all know and love was built between AD 72 and AD 81, way after the changing of your timeline. While I have no problem with another coliseum built...

  19. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    lol, sorry. Didn't mean to jump the gun. :)

  20. A much larger Rome that survives until the present day.

    Awesome, simply awesome. It had me shaking my head in anger and sadness. I've said this before, but nice, really nice. You know, just a thought, but if one daughter as survived and Felix married her then any child they have would be of the family line. Its a way for the line to continue yet...
