Does any1 else have a major problem with the Byzantium people, every time my empire gets large and they are left, i get floods and floods of spys and assasins caught (and lots of nobles dead). This is just really irritating when your trying to make a huge army to kill there purple asses.

The following has happened in the following times:

Me: The Spanish :)
Factions Remaining: Byzantium, Turkish & The Pope (Papacy)
And I am allies wif em all!

Me: The English :)
Factions Remaining: Byzantium & Mr Pope

Me: The English :) (Diffrent Game)
Factions Remaining: Byzantium

Me: Danish :)
Factions Remaining: Byzantium & The Egyptians!

Yes! I do spend alot of time on the game :)

Its just really irritaing when i start a game with me being in the north west, it always comes down to me and the purple guys, and suddenly i get loads dead nobles (wonder who did that with only 2 factions left :O).

(I play with the XL Mod)

Does this happen to every1?
