Wow, that sounds like that would be extremely fun 40,000 vs. 40 or so thousand troops... well since I'm moping up the Egyptians now in my English campaign and they're the last ones to stand against me I'm gonna load up Khazar for this uber-uber-fight. Shoot my biggest fight was 1,200 of my men defending against 3,100 Egyptians and that took about 1 1/2 hours so I can't imagine 40,000... oooh, just gives me goosebumps.

Uhm, also when should I expect the Horde year-wise, I'm in the High era now but I can't really develop up Khazar cause I'm fighting wars with Egypt and Hungary and spending much money supporting those efforts.
