Turn 23
Current Strategy: Destroy everyone
Current Priority: Punish the Ayyubids

"Superior navy" was severely damaged and routed out into the middle of the ocean by Sindh defenders, the settlement in question by Ayyubid forces is nothing to Sindh. Next, the cavalry arrives to punish them.

Ghaznavids down to final settlement, Ghorids as well. Allied with Rajputs, peace with Khwarezm, advancing on Abassid lands, building huge navy.

Edge: Match is still even, but short term advantage: Sindh

Turn 25
Current Strategy: Economy
Current Priority: Withdrawl of the eastern empire.

Movements: My 2nd smaller navy destroyed, Spies seeing there even matched navy at ports. Seeing there towns and seeing there incomes. Seeing my eastern exapnsion and seeing there income. Deciding to give up the eastern empire dream, I've told my whole eastern empire garrison to go away, I've destroyed my own cities trying to get what ever is worth in money. Throwing them all in Very High Taxes. Withdrawing my armies that were going to go on a fruitless campain against the Sindh's to Mecca, One of the holy cities of islam that can't be given up. So long to my eastern empire.
I am sure that this is the smartest thing to do. I hope that all agree with me as well. The eastern dream was a failure and all if in my place, would maybe agree with me.

Troops recruitment : The strongest ships in the game.
Troop Releasement : Half of my military
Agent recruitment : none
Cities let go : 5
