I started my 2nd campaign, 1st with the Danes. Right away I took Hamburg. I intend to keep it garrisoned as my southern basiton of defense against the HRE. I tryed to marry my princess to a HRE noble but was turned down. I did secure an alliance though. Next I took Oslo, converted it to a city and toook Stockholm as well. I then turned south to Antwerp. I sent one noble and a 3/4 stack on a crusade to Jerusalem. I stopped at the isle of Nicosia to establish a base of operations there. Many of my men had deserted by now. I hired some mercs who also deserted by the time I was able to get a seige in place on the holy city.
I'm going to try to wait out the seige and hope they don't sally as I have only 6 units and no funds to hire mercs. Meanwhile I took my main army and took Inverness from the rebels then sailed south and took London. I plan to move on the rest of the Brtitish Isle settlements to better establish an economy and eliminate England and Scotland from the game. The early army I'm fighting with isn't as good as what I had with the English, I hope it gets better soon.
