I have a few questions for y'all:

I'm playing glorious achievements and the points were piling up well until I reached 1205. I was at 70-something (playing as Spanish), and I calculated that by 1204 I had all my homelands (8) all my conquest territories taken (24) and had succesfully taked palestine (8) and Antioch (3) by way of successful crusades. Thus, I was expecting 43 points... and instead, after my glorious achievement screen came up, the only awarded me 8 points? the Byzantines shot ahead of me, and now my only option is to crush the entire world, which is fine, I can do that, but that isn't the way I was wanting to play. Anyone explain this?

Secondly, I dont understand the logfiles. Under the column for 'how soldier left battle', there is always a zero, whether he left dead or alive; under 'friendy kills', there are their real kills, when under 'kills' there is always a zero. How is this supposd to be read?

About the log file: the header row is not align with the other rows. They are tab separated. Count the columns from left, it may help.

Thanks for the info..

Too bad about the GA system being broken..

I'm not sure about the logfiles, if I read them left to right then my Chiv. Seargeants managed to kill 47 of their own men and none of the enemies'..... from what I remember of the layout, anyway, I'm posting from work.

thanks for the replies.
