The starting era selection screen

本游戏开始时需要选择开始时间，也就是模拟器开始变动历史的时间点。

你可以选择下面列出的某个剧本作为开始时间，也可以在1066至1337年之间选择一个自定义开始时间。

选择开局日期

随着科技发展进步，庞大的国家将会更加稳定，各商业共和国也会成为经济强国。在后期的开始时间，更大的战争将会爆发，因为十字军、吉哈德和大圣战将能够被召唤，同时还有地图外的游牧部族入侵。

在后期的开始时间，由于建筑数量增加，游牧制统治者将会更难通过劫掠来摧毁地产；反抗劫掠的叛乱也会生成更多的部队。同时，部落制国家在地图上的一些地区也越来越少见。

你可以立即选择一个角色开始游玩，或者使用“观察者模式”在游玩之前先来搅搅局。

剧本

每个剧本都有各自的主要强权和地区霸主。了解一下这些史实国家将会怎样表现吧，这会帮助你形成你自己的目标和战略。

中世纪早期 (769)

需要拥有 [[查理曼]] DLC

	卡尔和卡洛曼兄弟二人分别统治着法兰克帝国的一部分。如果卡尔能像历史上一样重新统一法兰克, 他就会被称为 "卡尔【伟大者】" 或 "查理曼"。之后他就能以建立神圣罗马帝国为目标。
	在拜占庭帝国, 关于宗教圣像使用的论战如火如荼。皇帝和普世牧首都信仰圣像破坏派，但是仍能通过决议转信东正教。
	阿巴斯帝国正值实力巅峰。然而，那些强力的封臣们正在蛰伏，等待时机准备脱离帝国的控制。
	安达卢西亚的倭马亚苏丹国控制了西班牙的大片领土，这也算是大约20年前被阿巴斯夺取阿拉伯帝国后的某种补偿吧。在北方，阿斯图里亚斯危若累卵，即将陷于穆斯林之手。如果能成功入侵阿基坦王国的图卢兹或者勃艮第王国的普罗旺斯，倭马亚苏丹国很可能触发早期的十字军。然而，和867剧本不同，倭马亚苏丹国将有更多的时间巩固自己。通过建立一个帝国，他们也许能重拾旧时的荣耀。
	在东方，吐蕃帝国对周边近邻虎视眈眈，统治着大片仍然信奉原始宗教的地区；与此同时西域都护府力量处于最低谷，因为唐朝尚未从大约10年前爆发的安史之乱中恢复。

维京时代 (867)

Requires The Old Gods DLC

	In Scandinavia, small tribes are attempting to subjugate each other in the hope of forming Norway, Sweden and the Fylkirate. The sons of Ragnarr Loðbrok are attempting to carve out pieces of England in revenge for the murder of their father. Farther east, Rurik is beginning his attempt to form Rus. While the Norse are powerful now, they are vulnerable to gavelkind and conversion by missionaries.
	King Arpad of the Magyars is beginning a series of invasions with the hope of settling in Hungary. Despite having massive event armies and access to the Tribal Invasion CB, the Hungarians often stay put after conquering de jure Hungary.
	Six Karling kingdoms dominate Western Europe. Will enough Karling realms unite, through claim wars or inheritance, to create a new empire?
	The Umayyad Sultanate of Al-Andalus controls 66% of Hispania, but Asturias has upgraded holdings and is therefore stronger than it looks. Just like in the 769 bookmark, the Umayyads may inspire early Crusades if they successfully invade Aquitaine at Toulouse; but now they'll have a lot less time to prepare for the counterattack.
	The Abbasid Caliph, Al-Mu'tazz, rules over a weakened Arabian empire. Former vassals have become de facto independent. The Caliph's half-brothers consider claimant bids, while the Turkish dukes in Jerusalem clamor for independence. Meanwhile, the Saffarids ruling Persia have less than 90 years to prepare for a Seljuk invasion.

中世纪盛期 (1066)

	The descendants of Rurik have converted to Orthodox Christianity. The continued practice of gavelkind has left Ruthenia and Rus a mess of independent duchies, but anyone who dares to attack one is likely to draw the ire of all Rurikid rulers.
	The Holy Roman Empire and France are major powers. The Karling dynasty rules neither: they have been reduced to a single county, Vermandois in France. Hungary, Poland, and much of Scandinavia have converted to Catholicism. Although Catholic and feudal, the Hungarians have not forgotten the raiding ways of their forefathers.
	King Harold of England is being invaded by two claimants: Duke William "the Bastard" of Normandy, and King Harald "the hard-ruler" of Norway. (This describes 15 September 1066, before the battle of Stamford Bridge. If you wish to start with William the Conqueror, select 26 December 1066 instead.)
	The Sunni Andalusians rule small duchies in the wake of the disintegration of Al-Andalus. The Catholic Castilians in northwest Hispania have also split into multiple kingdoms, ruled by three brothers. How long will Hispania remain a fierce battleground of holy wars and Castilian infighting?
	The Seljuk horde has swept through Persia and Mesopotamia, reducing the Abbasid Caliphate to a mere vassal duchy. But can they survive their rebellious vassals? Meanwhile, the decadent Fatimid dynasty controls Egypt and large swaths of the former Arabian Empire. However, the Caliph is bankrupt and the impending First Crusade seems poised to take back Jerusalem...
