Hi guys..

I've been searching around for ages, and I cant find any tips on this.

I love to play as england, but the problem is that I cant actually have "Total War" because the pope gets irritated when i attack the french and threatens to excommunicate me.

Now.... Historically, England and france have been whooping each other for 1000's of years... and i find it totally silly that i cant pursue a war with them.

This whoe "dont attack a catholic faction" thing seems wholey inaccurate to me.

Id really like some advice on how to play this game without worrying about the pope.

Also .... inquisitors ... ive manged to keep them out of my own lands by building loads of priests .... but they sometimes cross my borders and kill all my generals anyway.

This again is quite frankly very annoying.

I really need help witht hsi concept guys... please, can anyone help?
