Hi all, could anyone be so kind and tell me what the difference between spear militia and town militia is? I checked their stats are identical except for the upkeep. What am I missing?
Also the Pope called for a crusade against Antioch and I sent my Prince with a big army across the Medditerranian but the Turks intercepted the fleet and sunk it. I tried to send another army, but it says it is too late to join the crusade. Meanwhile the Turks lost Antioch to the Mongols and no other catholic faction can take the city from them - the Milanese and the Siciliance got their butts severely beaten. I cannot launch another crusade to another city before this one is over. The Pope died and the new one still wants Antioch but no one can deliver it.
It is my first campaign ever and I as the English had a nice little empire in the middle east going until the Mongols arrived and attacked the Turks first. Then they allied them and attacked me in stead and pretty much ended my dominance in the region - Alexandria is barely holding, Dongola is still mine only because it is too far for them to reach it, Cairo rebeled. My only pride is Damascus which gave the Mongols their first defeat.
