Also, I'm still beating myself up for not buying CKII when we had that 75% off on Steam, because now I don't have all the packs and stuff and I've discovered Steam to be much more convenient for these things. If it pops up again (doubtful with the coming expansion) can someone PM me to let me know?
the Crusades will no longer necessarily kick off after a certain year; it now depends on the actual situation in Europe. For example, if Constantinople or Rome have fallen or the Moors are pushing into France. Similar conditions now apply for the Muslims. The Pagans - if they can have Great Holy Wars - will get them after the Crusades and Jihads are both active.
I missed out too on the CK2 pack sale, they are usually on Amazon and they were on sale just after xmas last year, hopefully same thing this year with all the new DLCs included.
