You mean like in real life . If there is a wider consensus among fans there will probably appear an MP mod that alters the startage or maxage of nations with shorter lifespans. Perhaps an (EB) emotional balance mod to remove irritating or overly rewarding random elements such as age and heroes .
Ah, Real Life. In Real Life, one doesn't get to skip over hours of boredom simply to get to the interesting bits. Why does Dominions allow one to skip forward an entire month in seconds via the turn mechanism? For that matter, Real Life doesn't have graphics options to speed things up - why does Dominions? People (and not-people) are _dying_ and getting _maimed_ in those battles, why should the player be able to fast forward through their suffering???

For that matter - does this mean that we can look forward to Babies Crying, Inlaws, and Nagging Spouses ("Zeus, when_ are you going to finally clean up Thebes?") in Dominions 4?
