Talk:Timeline (Eternal Troy)

Okay, well, this is from my initial reading of the page: Other than those little things, this timeline has a lot of potential, both in its future and with what you've already written - you could go into so much detail about what you've already got! It's looking good so far - you might just want to break it up by putting a new header for each decade or century, perhaps. Otherwise it's looking really good, and best of luck with it in the future!

 * The bit of how Troy expanded between 1100-753BC could be expanded, I'd reckon there's plenty of conflict on the Anatolian peninsula (and around the Black Sea, if Troy expands in that direction).
 * The Federation of Heroes I find a bit... odd. Both in name, and in character; the Greeks were famously uncooperative. But I imagine there'd be a way around this. Athens wasn't the only democratic city state, there were various others across the Greek peninsula. If there was some kind of disaster and/or philosophical revolution then perhaps that might have encouraged greater cooperation between the city-states; eventually, elected strategoi would have spread this union across the other nations and forcibly introduced democracy to the other Greek cities.
 * The Greco-Roman Alliance would probably need some kind of catalyst to form. Perhaps the Trojans expand into Thrace and threaten Greek colonies in the Black Sea, and simultaneously aggravate Roman seafaring interests. The Greeks would probably be the first to approach the Romans. On the topic of Roman seafaring interests...
 * Carthage. I'm no expert on it, but I'd imagine there'd still be conflict between Carthage and Rome over the Mediterranean. So I doubt Carthage would be so happy to leap into the Alliance unless Rome had to basically blackmail it, perhaps through seizing Sicily and Sardinia and only promising their return after Carthage helps to attack Troy. Possibly.
 * Alexander the Great being a general in the war against Troy is simply epic. I'd recommend you expand this bit for awesomeness!
 * The date system is a tad messy with the three dates arranged side-by-side. Perhaps put the BC/AD date in bold, then the other two in italics of brackets.
