I have honestly gotten to the "wary eye" level of suspicion towards Paradox regarding never allowing anything to do with Jews into their games during relevant historical periods until Sons of Abraham.
Yeah. It makes sense in the case of HoI, but regarding EU IV and CK2, the rule was just dumb (not saying they needed to implement it, but they could have).

Well, we have a new hint.

7 and 3 are important numbers.
So something about calendars?  If I remember correctly the third month was removed in the first century.  Not sure what makes seven significant off the top of my head.

Paradox makes shit games if it's not HoI, Vicky, CK, or EU. Not really caring about this.

I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

Wasn't Rome founded in 753 BC?

EU: Rome 2? It's a new IP, though... maybe pretty much that except as it's own thing rather than an EU spin-off?

It is Rome. Julius Caesars legions had the number 3 in Gaul, while Augustus had the number 7 in his legions.

Here's hoping for intensive roman socio-political simulator.  Hopefully with better combat than most of their other stuff and perhaps navel conflict.

If not under Neotemplar look for Vellum.

If it is Rome, it must have a thoroughly simulated senate. Anything less would be a disappointment.

The project name is likely to have absolutely nothing to do with the game. If you take a look at previous games you'll see Project Nero, which was Runemaster.

Well, yes. But then we can't dream of EU: Rome 2, and that is horrible.

Hopefully this doesn't end up like another Runemaster or East vs. West.

They have been working on this for at least 1,5 year and the fact that they are now close to announcing it means that it is in alpha/almost in alpha. So that makes a rather large difference between it and Runemaster/EvW. It's also developed by Paradox Interactive itself as a new major IP which means they have faith in it.
