Well, in that case there might be some problems...
Usually in my games the french tends to be unstoppable unless i kill them early...
I've never seen england survive to 1230...

That's cool, you win some, lose some. In that case I demand that you update the "have you ever lost" thread on your defeat at the hands of the French AI!

Well, i said "unless i kill them early" ;-)
It was more an AI balancing itself than VS the human player, with a grand inquisitor and a few dozen assassins even the greatest armies will fall against humans.

Exactly! If I'm the English, Spanish, HRE, Arogonese, Italians, or even the Almohads, I usually don't leave the French alone for very long. They tend to dominate the western half of the map almost as often as Egypt dominates the eastern half.

It also helps that France gets ex-commed a lot. You gotta love free-for-alls when you're not the target of them.
