I've been playing like that for a while except that I do invade nations that attack me. Only occupy and ransom/releasing.

I am glad to see others are doing this.

Just remember no matter what the provocation, even if it is killing four of your heirs in a treacherous battle (just happened to me, I knew not to trust the Germans but my idiot Lord Chancelor told me they would not attack my ship carrying my heirs back home from the Crusades) Catholic owned cities are off limits.

Even if they're excommunicated? Or don't they count as Catholic any more?

What about a crusade called against a Catholic faction?

1. (assuming city in question is not a Crusade target) if they are excommunicated it only means that the nobility has been a bunch of scalewags and scoundrels, but because the cities population is still of the same flock as you are you may not conquer the city. You may however assist an allied faction in taking the city, which maybe helpful to you and makes diplomacy mean something.

2. No good Catholic knows better then the pope, if he calls a Crusade on a Catholic City then Deus Vult (just remember that you are only allowed the city he calls the Crusade against).

Good luck
