Is there really a purpose to Crusading when playing on World Conq. mode?

My problem with it was even if you sucesfully launched a Crusade to Palestine and recaptured the Holy Land all that happened was "You have captured Palestine" and "Your brave crusaders have reached their Church sanctioned objective."

Wow wee... we just liberated the Kingdom of Heaven and you get the same message as if you'd just conquered Finland. I wanted cheering and celebration and flockings of money and just something.... When playing Golden Achievements I'd have maybe got some points for it - except if I was playing a minor faction that the developers didn't give any awards to. Recapturing Jerusalem should be more significant.

I totaly agree. I was as surprised as you when i conquered Palestine. Someone should fix this problem.

Not really a problem with the game that can be fixed.

Hopefully MTW2 will give more importance to holding the Holy Land for Christendom.

...but...but... FINLAND IS SO FULL OF AWESOME!!!!

Really, I guess the game designers just thought that that "CRUSADE SUCCESS" message you get if you captured the province was enough. Truth be told, it was enough for me the first time my first crusade succeeded.
