Here is the save

The Combined forces of Asteri under the aid of Nikiphoros Manouelitis sought out to seek out and destroy the Egyptian Jihad that had been reported pillaging its way through the Anatolian heartland.

The men were commanded in name by Ioannis Kalameteros, however reports have surfaced that Ioannis was at the last minute stuck down by a fever and the relatively untested nobleman Nevoulas ek Philadelphias took the command of the army.

A short hunt on the road to Iconium and the Jihad was found to be camped.

I am delighted to report that this large Egyptian Jihad army has been completely wiped out and the performance of the bodyguards of Nikiphoras, Nevoulas and Ioannis won the day backed up by the brave peasant army of the Asteri.

One soldier stood out in the battle and has now been promoted to Ioannis' retinue labelled as a somewhat Notorious Berserker he will surely be of usefulness in any future battles.

I attempted the ransom the army - it was a longshot at gaining the empire more funds.

A short battle report will follow.

Report for 1135:

Buildings:

Nicosia started a Chapel

Antioch started a Cathedral

Diyarbakir started a small Chapel

Nicaea started Communal Farming

Events:

Sold maps and trade rights to Aragon for 2000 florins.

Portugal and the Moors are at war.

Kalameteros had another daughter. Her name is Simonis. I congratulate both him and the Princess.

Isaakios is obviously not lazy at something. He had a son by the name of Evmathios.

Yerevan is under siege by a couple small Turkish raiding parties.

I besieged Adana with what I could gather together. The Turks sallied. Despite heavy losses, I beat them and occupied the castle. I will state here that I give Adana back to Bart.

Nathanail was attacked by the Templars. I retreated him and the Order's army. The Templars forced a battle. Nathanail lost but survived and took the rest of the army into Antioch. (OOC: Bananbob long ago gave me access to his avatar. I first retreated him and then auto-resolved the battle.)

The Moorish Jihad is next to Sofia. They will get close to Constantinople this year but can not reach it yet. I have recruited 2 more archer militia units to fill out the garrison. Aleksios ek Ikoniou is at the city with his army. Combined, the defenders have a massive force to protect the capital. I wish them luck.

Permissions:

Stavros and Annios can each move their own armies.

Alexandria was offered an explorer Guild. Methodios knows the drill...

OOC:

Moved Ramses, IK, and NN according to their wishes. Queued up more siege equipment for KP.

Free move will end Saturday morning my time. (US CT)
