Then I got to Constantinople... which was unguarded... so I sold 10K in developments and crusaded on until the Eggy's defeated the Crusade and then the Spanish conquered Palestine... Grrr.

After the loss of Constantinople plus the Italians and German crusaders, the Turks took over in High. They conquered all the Byzantine territories and reoccupied it's borders. They didn't kill anyone else since within 15 years, the Horde showed up and killed them.

So now the horde is big and the Spanish are too. They attack Aragon. Thus, I kill their hordes of Javelin men and invade Leon. All hell breaks loose in the form of civil war, rebellions, religious insurrections, and the Almohads reappearing with 2 full stacks in North africa. But the Spanish, beind presistant, won back North Africa. The turks being dead, the Mongols take over everything from Prussia to the Sinai. So thus, I invade Russia as the English and in 6 bridge battles in a row, kill 6 Khans. They fall apart and I take over Russia.

That's my little story.
Nice story and excellent fighting (playing) .
