AAlright, so I quickly ended my previous English campaign with some ease, the Sicilians' massive stacks of weak armies were no match. Seriously, 6/7+ -full or nearly full- stacks were wiped out by an army of 300Chivalric Sergeants<dudes with spears), 180 halberdiers, 180 billmen, 60 royal knights, and about 320 Feudal Knights.....Anyway, throughout that campaign, things seemed too easy. Except against the English, and the Almohads, everyone basically just crumbled when faced against me.

So, I'm gonna try another campaign. Early English, Hard setting...So my question is, what are your directives to make this one as realistic, and accurate as possible to what might have happened in real-life. Both in the strategy map, and the battle field...

Right now it's about somewhere between 1110 and 1115, I'm allied with all the Christian factions, I broke off an alliance with the Almos when the Spaniards attacked them. And I'm planning a massive crusade(a-la First Crusade) against the Egyptians in Palestine....I'll go from Wessex, Western France, HRE, Northern Italy, Serbia, Bulgaria, Constantinople, Nicaea, Antioch, Tripoli and then Palestine....Or at least hopefully that's the general path I'll try to follow.

So anyway, any and all recommendations you may have to make this as real and accurate as possible, please give em to me.
