OK, I was powerful (largest number of troops in the game), but if say Spain or France decided to trun against me, my empire would have a hard fight on its hands.

Re: The computer cheats!
This is frustrating when this happens. In my current Early English campaign, I am the largest by some way. I have conquered all of Islam single handed, pushed Byzantium into 2 small Islands and have been waging war against the Novos for ages. I haven't been near the Hungarians, but they attacked 1 province of mine - Moldova I think - I lift the seige and I am currently under threat of excomm - ther is no justice!! Nobody wants to ally with me either. I have even given the Pope Burgandy after he bribed a rebel army to his side.

When your forces are inside the castle, note that the province around it has changed colour to the invading faction. It's now their land, so your siege-lift, in fact, counts as an attack on them!Originally Posted by King Kurt
Pope says "get out within 2 years" but, by winning the province back, you've achieved that bit - it's not their land any more. Now all you have to do is abide by the "no further attacks for 10 years" bit and all will be okay.
The purpose of the warning is to give you the choice of politely pulling out and handing the lands back, or pressing on with ending the siege inside 2 years - e.g. one year of attrition and assault in year 2 - but make sure you win that one, or else!
What really gets peoples' goat is where some other faction starts the war but it's you which gets given the warning, as per what happend to KHV.
