We do get to hope though that the mongols behave like they do in my SP campaigns: sit around their spawning point doing absolutely nothing till Timurids invade. Of course we could jsut declare war on them for fun (by sending up an assassin) but yeah.

What is needed to kill mongols: highly experienced mt.sgt. or mailed knights + several long range missile units. Or just several full stacks of mailed knights + a few feudals. But our house rules prohibit that :D
Maybe eventually those rules might get changed as the event advisor says: "New tactics are needed for new foes"

I'd say though that we ought to only consider loosening those rules once we lost a battle or two against them to signify we noticing their tactics and the need to adapt and not before even engaging them. Maybe an emergency session even
Leopold is an 8 or 9 star general.

They did hang around in my SP game on 1.2 for a while, but once they decided they wanted Constaninople they really went for it.

I'd say our parliamentary system will be quite a problem for creating Mongol killing armies, and I really don't know how we can afford serveral full stacks of heavy cavalry. Tactical change is certainly plausible but will it happen fast enough?

The only way to consider loosening the rules is to Role Play, and certainly I would expect the first few engagements to be ugly before an emergency session is called.
