Here's mine , add yours.

Russian, mid period, initially tried to whack the GH when they appeared and achieved this by 1242. Turks then attacked and the French crusaded LIvonia, beat them but GH reappeared quickly.

Having just beaten back all these guys I allowed a civil war so by 1260 was in a pretty sorry state. I destroyed the Byz and took Constantinople and had a cache of 10 provinces.
Meanwhile the Danes were quietly beavering away.They snuck in and took Novogood and Muscovy,totally surrounding me.

By the time I'd recovered ~1300 the Danes were huge with Pope gaining on them , all other factions were eliminated or rumps.

By 1340 the Danes had most of Europe/Egpyt, they must have been close to 60%(btw does the ai ever claim minor victory?)

My only hope was assination . I finally succeeded in 1360 and 30-40 provinces went rebel

The Hungarians and Poles reemerged immediately and got eliminated by about 15 k rebels lying around in middle europe.

The Almohads on the other hand returned and took all of Spain /West Africa and West Europe , about 12-15 provinces, now thats what I call a re-emergence.

So the Pope and the Russians(myself) now are in a mad scramble to take over the Rebels. Luckily I had built up 3/4 million florins for this event . Still the Pope is a sneaky $%#@ and stolen a few plumb provinces from me.

I guess the Pope has about 20 provinces now, and I won't be able to turn him into rebels.

Nevertheless the Danish asassination removed about 100-150(maybe more) boats from the map(no exaggeration, the danes had many armadas of full stacks of boats).

My most amazing is that i'm the turks. I take Byzantine lands, and work my way though the Eygpt and Alhomand territory. Moving though Spain, thats were my problems started. Christian rebels daily. Meanwhile my army marches though Russia and Hungary. Like a tidal wave, I unleash my hordes, Flying into the nation Of France and the HRE. Moving down Italy, I conquer that. I prepare to invade Britian. Then it happened. Revolts in all of Europe http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/eek.gif every year my armies were depleted, I tried to train more Jassinary Axemen or whatever, and kept trying to surpress the revolts. Finally, the large revolts end and I whittle my way up the England. I conquer the world, Muhahahahahaha

For an entire campaign, it`s hard to say what was the most amazing. But there were some situations that are just great. With the HRE, I conquered Palestine and the other crusader states (except Edessa). I didn`t have trade route and was surrounded by Turks and Egyptians. I won several decisive battles with a unit of Order Foot.
A similar situation was with the Egyptians when I took Croatia. The Sicialians and Almohads had all lands surrounding me and the Sicilians had a strong fleet that cut of my reinforcements. Still I managed to hold the province despite being vastly outnumbered and cut off.
