Secondly, are there any particular aspects of Sword's gameplay I should aim to try out ASAP? Anything which makes the Muslim factions particularly cool?
1: Mallorca is a nice faction to play as. Starts out with 4 provinces, has some minors nearby, has medium wealth, but the riches in southern spain are nearby.
2: Polygamy and the intrigue between wives is quite interesting.
