So awesome that someone actually played the game to conclusion!

The great Polish navy will be feared! ... by some fishermen in a pond near Novgorod.:embarassed:
I'm guessing the AI hired some galley there.
And on a side note, there's been a cool little mini-development in this game. Notice the little rebel army near Helsinki? That is in fact a very nice army of veteran crusaders, composed mostly of Mercenary Spearmen, Crusader Knights, and Mercenary Frankish Knights. It's managed to hold Helsinki for almost the entire game, hence the fact it is a completely undeveloped backwater with only a damaged Motte and Bailey with no other buildings for a settlement.
So my campaign has basically developed a rogue crusader faction, not too far off from where the Teutonic Knights historically fought.:2thumbsup:
Why exactly it is there I have no idea, since the only Crusades I have noticed have been on Antioch and Tunis.:shrug:
Yeah! I'm so proud of those rebels... The Frankish knights is probably a typo, should be Finnish knights :bow:Quote:

Not really a screen, but perhaps amusing.
My girlfriend made this for me in her sowing circle ;) It's awaiting a frame. Since she can only hear the sounds from the game, she thinks the Imams (and everyone else for that matter) are pretty lazy, they have to rest all the time! We continue tomorrow mighty sultan!

It looks like the Vatican hides something from the commoners...

...maybe an elections fraud and the fact that faith isn't the same with arithmetics:

Hah, that wouldn't be the first or last time the pesky commoners weren't told something those Up High didn't think they needed to know!!Quote:

Interestingly enough, the majority of the visual bugs I encountered were in the French version of the game. Later I switched to the English version and the frequency reduced quite a lot. Maybe I'll post some other screenshots, at one point I was constantly pressing the printscreen button during French version campaigns... :beam:
(OT - Jeez, no more spellchecker for replies? Sorry for spelling mishaps then :embarassed: )
Hahaha that's great. Backwards tug of war?
LoL
Tell them to Fire!
Heh. Nice one! :laugh4:
Very funny. Needs no explanation, indeed. Wait, let me try something...Quote:

Commentator#1: (in awe) Very intruiging.
Commentator#2: ... Well, more on that there have been reported cases where one side accidentally got their fuse a'light. The loud explosion that arise are a spectacular sight to behold. An amusement to the troops on both sides, and embarassment to their general. Those caught attempting to so while their general does speech pre-battle, end up trampled under their own general's horse.
Commentator#1: Most bizzare!!!
(Commentator#2 stares at his partner before saying,)
Commentator#2: Yes. Obviously...

This plan can't fail!
This happens when you hire blind cannon crew! :inquisitive:Quote:

I know the AI sometimes likes to stack things in its favor when it comes to terrain, but this is a bit silly >_>
