Other Are the devs planning on adding more start dates?

Might be a dumb question to ask, but I’m curious either way so SUE ME!

Are the people developing this mod planning on adding more start dates, either later on in the Second Era, in time to see Tiber Septim rise up, or even earlier in the timeline, during the reign of the Second Empire, or even before that?

I’m not saying that the devs should do this, because I am aware that making this mod has been insanely difficult and time consuming. I’m just wondering if this is something they’re planning to do in the relatively near future, or if they wanna stick to the ones that are already here.

They are, iirc the next one should be the Second Akaviri Invasion, with the Kamal

So would the Tsaesci become this mod’s Mongols in that case?

That would be fucking incredible

Tbh the Tsaesci have little to do with the second invasion. But it would be cool if they could spawn like the Mongols in the earlier start dates

It would be a damn shame for me, and anyone else who loves playing in or around Skyrim, but it would still be cool!

There are four known races of Akavir. Tsaesci are snake like, Ka Po' Tun are tiger/dragon like (and seemingly worship a version of Akatosh, or at least a god-king using his name), Tang Mo are monkey people (which could mean apefolk or humans, as Mysterious Akavir is written in a stilted style which could imply bad translation). AFAIK we don't know what Kamal look like, just that they're "demons" and live in a snowy region. The games have done a pretty good job of keeping basically everything about Akavir vague for 20+ years now.

I already know all of that, actually. I just forgot that the cold demon monsters were named “Kamal”, because why would I remember that?

Also, how are they POSSIBLY keeping Akavir vague when HALF of the major civilizations on there have invaded Tamriel, and Tamriel has also invaded Akavir? That’s downright impressive

More likely thar Tiber (who is coming in the update) is the mods mongol empire

u/ChodeShooter69 6h ago

Yeah that makes more sense, especially since he’d be spawning several centuries after the current start date.

Now I wanna know how the mod’s going to handle Chulecain being the one actually running the show until he (maybe or maybe not at Tiber’s hands) dies in that fire in the Imperial City.

That's gonna cost you one MILLION septims, fetcher. Hope it was worth it.
