omg how funny, i just did this very thing this morning with portugal, i sold a city to the moors, made 2 jinettes, a few militia and bought 2 merc spearmen, then everyone went on the ships, 2 full stack and princesses etc
it was a hairy voyage to alexandria, had a few close calls with pirates, and both armies were on fleets of just 1 ship, 1 stack went to cairo, the other to alexandria, i quickly assaulted both and made up alot of my 32,000 dollar dept via sacking both. alexandria is now my capital, i have both bridges defended, am slowly making money and am about to head for gaza...then on to the holy land
prolly gonna take me 10 more turns to get out of debt, then when i sack gaza i should have a nice chunk of cash to fund my assault on jerusalem
this is on H/VH no cheating, its really fun, and i have the faction with the best units around...i feel sorry for mongols and timurids if they come wandering into my lands. adventuros, portuguese arbs, musketeers, jinettes, portuguese mounted and foot knights, conquistadors, almughavars (monsters on walls)...this is gonna be so great
i love this area of the map, but i always hated the crap armies muslims have, so this is great, cant believe i never did this before, WOOT![]()
