Hello, I read contradictory reports about turns lengths. Sometime I can read 7 days/turn, sometimes 15 days.
Which is correct ?
Thank you

2 weeks.
It was my mistake. Somewhere I post about 1 week. I was wrong. I did not back to my GC in TEAW more than 2 months.
But 7 days/turn would be better

In some of the scenarios from the expansion the turn length is indeed 1 week. Also there's a mod made by Altaris that uses 1 week turns for the campaigning season in the grand campaign, but sadly the mod seems incomplete and hasn't been updated for a few years.

Ah ! Thanks guys. So the answer is "two weeks" but some mods/scenario can change it into 1 week ?
Interesting ...
Yes, my personal opinion is that the ageod engine is more adapted to shorter turns. For example, I think that 30 days (like for instance in TYW) makes very little sense. I hope that the next games will be limited to 7/15 days maximum , and preferably 7 ...

Correct. I guess the main argument against shorter turns is the (high) amount of turns in games that last multiple years. But I agree with you that shorter turns would, in general, be better.
