    After a crusade, I destroy everything and give it away. Either to the Pope or a to a faction that is close to the original owners, just to cause trouble.

    Then I just keep conquering and sacking and destroying until my army is dead and I am filthy rich.

    Its basically just a profitable suicide squad...and so I only do it when I have an old general or two who won't be around much longer. If they are that old, I can't rely on them to lead a standing army for any significant amount of time...may as well put them to good use and let them die with honor.

    Now a days, I usually only join crusades to attack closer targets, ie I join for the movement and troops and then abandon it when I'm next to my target. The only times I actually take cities in the Levant and hold them is if my empire has reached to it usually in Venetian or Sicilian campaigns or I am doing a migration campaign
