I think it depend of the cntext, if we said during the american revolution or the Renaissance don't need to use CE and if it's during Antiquity as inRome, Greece or Egypt, used CE or BCE.

But in my personal opinion, I find difficulties to use the term common era. Myself I make  History studies and I know many  countries use the gregorian calendar as civil calendar and some people today could be offended to see the terms "Before Christ" or "Anno Domino", but i find a bit ironical and hypocritical to used a christian calendar, erasing the fact it used the birth of the Christ  as the beginning of it and saying later it's the common era. It must use another point in history for the common era, as the apparition of human life, the beginning of writing or something else.

It's also posed a problem with the other calendars. In Black Flag, the date used are from the Gregorian or the Julian calendar as Great Britain didn't use the Gregorian one before 1752?
