I've figured out how to change turn dates, but not yet how to change entry dates for different countries. My idea is to start with the western front on turn 1, turn 2 wouls see AH vs. Serbia, and on turn 3 Russia would join in. If it turns out to be impossible, then all fronts would start blazing on early August.

I'd appeciate any help here. Thanks!

edit: approximately, since it is event related.

Status: offline 		The starting alliances are defined by which alliance bracket the faction is included in. So in 1914.lua, you'll see something like this: 
alliances =
{
  {
    id = 0,

    factions =
    {
        [i]A load of factions, these are the neutral factions[/i]
    }
  },
  -- **************************** ENTENTE ALLIES ***********************
  {
    id = 1,
    enemies = {2},

    factions =
    {
        [i]Just Serbia here[/i]
    }
  },

  -- ******************* CENTRAL POWERS *********************
  {
    id = 2,

    enemies = {1},

    factions =
    {
        [i]Just Austria here[/i]
    }
  }
}


To change the starting alliances, shift factions between the relevant sections. The alignment of neutral nations is then set by the function SetFactionAlignment
