I read through the list briefly so I may have missed this but what good are the points? i realise that to some it can be fun and add a new angle to the game but to these points benefit your kingdom at all? For instance will a crusade put me in good with the pope so I can conquer Italy without him complaining....God forbid...hee heeeeeeeeee!
