Hey I'm a long time player and viewer first time poster etc...
I get the game tuesday, but in the meantime i was wondering if people with the game could answer a few questions for me please.

For example, when you've created a crusading army and have to get to...let's say jerusalem, do you have to get military access to other catholic nations/eastern orthodox to march through their lands...plus wouldn't the turks try to stop you if you're just marching through turkey to attack another islamic faction?

Also can the pope expand the papal states like he could in MTW? If so will you be excommunicated if he attacks you?

And on a historical note i noticed that the musketeers wear ripped tunics...stupid question but I was wondering why were they ripped, was it purely the time's fashion or was there some purpose for it?

sorry for the stupid questions... hope to see some of you in multiplayer!
