Hi @Gilrandir,

loosing interest happens to me sometimes, too - if everything I wanted is built, my income roaring, my armies on the highest available level, the fleet controls all sea regions and no strong enemy is left (this can happen about the time you lose interest, so 1350-1380). But sometimes I am controlling myself, as Danish only taking Lithuania/Livonia, Ireland and maybe the "english" island as well. I get sometimes empires owning 3/4th of the map and then going for me - and at this moment boredom is far away, the last Huscarles are mobilized with all the others to save my small Kingdom, fighting it out with odds from 1:3 up to 1:10. It can take some time to show those guys that "small" doesn´t mean "weak" - and, lo and behold, it´s 1453 - game over ;-))

The Horde: I know, they often behave completely stupid - never saw them using their horrendous numbers (they use to pop up with 20.000-30.000 men in my games) the way they´d get the most out of it - but sitting around in Khazar with 10.000men, not doing anything, attacking Kiev with a mere 2.500 men getting slaughtered.....don´t know why...on the other side, I saw them coming as far as Swabia/Franconia, all the east conquered till down Croatia, half the map their colour, and only the combined efforts of all remaining factions were able to stop them! That´s what I love with M:TW - there´s a probability of what will happen but there are SURPRISES!!!

Happy greetings daigaku
