Hmm I thought that CA was trying not to simulate history, buf offer players a "what if" style of gameplay. Sure I expect the HRE to get attacked..but by everyone? Hmmmm. After 50 turns of defending and winning the same seiges...same tactics etc...I found myself crying into my keyboard.

I am all for historical accuracy..but this doesnt pretend to be that.

Would like some glorious achievements for a slower pace of gameplay..as it is too much rush rush conquest..not enough options to explore the slow burn build it up strategy.
