I now have a crusade that cannot go anywhere. Its stuck forever in a province. Never happened to me before... I hope its a one off.

*sigh*, wish I didnt stick a prince in that crusade now http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/frown.gif

I've had a German crusade cross my realms, going through Ile de France ( I think, somehwere down there), up to Denmark, just to return again, heading for portugal http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/eek.gif.
Draining my armies, leaving me stunned (actually just annoyed but hey, tis more dramatic to say stunned http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif).

What I don't understand is how you can only move a crusade toward a province, but the AI can move a crusade towards, and away from its target. Doesn't seem fair to me. Also, while we're on the subject (while I am, and off the right topic), why don't AI missle units ever run out of ammo?? If anyone tells me that they always do, then I'll be seriously mad. I've PURPOSELY sat in a few custom battles, with limited ammo turned on, archer vs archer, until my unit was completely dead. I remember testing just simple Archers vs and Archer unit. They obviously should have run out within a few volleys of when I did....but I just stood there purposefully....and about 9-12 volleys later my men routed. AI cheating imo.

I know the AI can run out of ammo... seen it happen many a time. AI tends to shoot less... so it *seems* like it doesnt run out. To my knowledge the only time the AI "cheats" is when its on expert. On expert the AI gets a small moral bonus ingame, which is annoying.

Crusades work fine for me. Remember, Crusades can use shipping routes, even if they aren't your own ships... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif
