[OverKnight]

1198

We have found and executed a French spy in Marseille.

I declined to build a Thieves Guild in Bern.

We are now the most advanced faction.

The Polish forces that retreated from east of Thorn are now directly across the bridge from Duke von Kastilien, but are in their own territory.

The French have sent a large army under a Captain to their border with Metz. It is close to the Swabian Household Army commanded by Steward Scherer.

Admiral Nikolaus has engaged and defeated a French fleet southwest of Genoa. He is now known as a fine officer.

It seems Egyptian reinforcements have rushed in from their eastern provinces:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Count Mandorf will hold tight for now in Adana while he continues to reinforce.

Kaiser Henry and Count Hans have marched north from Acre with all the full strength units in the area. They have reached the border with Antioch, but cannot engage the Egyptians this year.

I have stayed behind in Acre with the units that still need to be refitted. I will also keep an eye on Jerusalem.

Sir Hummel has landed in the Levant, southwest of Antioch. I have sent him to engage an army of Egyptians that crossed the ford from Aleppo. I await word of the battle. . .

Ulrich has defeated the Saracens and now holds the ford to Aleppo. I have sent the Teutonic Knight's from the Kaiser's army to reinforce him.

Count von Mahren has embarked on two flotillas of ships that will return to Venice. The remaining three flotillas from Sir Hummel's former fleet have blockaded Antioch.
