Mega-LPs tend to go Crusader Kings -> Europa Universalis -> Victoria -> Hearts of Iron (insert whatever number version you want to play after each one), right? I think that's really the best course of action you can do unless you want to be really ambitious and play through EU: Rome and then fill in the great span of time between that and CK with alt-history as you make the conversions necessary for an alt-scenario. This does make me wonder, though: would anyone even be interested in a grand strategy game set between 4-500 and 1000 AD, roughly between Rome and CK? It's not exactly an "empty" period of history but I don't seem to run across many games that are set during that period of time.

We had a discussion about this a little while back about this in the Paradox thread. There was some grumblings about how well the Clausewitz engine could model the great migrations of the period but there was also some interest.

That makes me almost want to convert a hands-off game just so I can be high-tech Inca.
