thanks, what's the highest castle stable called? Baron's stables?

I think you get an Earl's Stables after that, and finally a King's Stables. You can see all of this in the building browser, I think it also lists what units each building trains.

Yes. The Byzantine Kataphraktoi needs the last stable in the stables line of buildings. The King's Stables. (In Islamic factions it's the Caliph's Stables.) Which is of course after Baron's and after Earl's.

You said you get tired after reconquering a nations historical borders? ^_^ Why not try the Moors or the Byzantines! At one time the Moors controled the mighty Arab empire which spanned from France to Egypt! Or the Byzantine Empire, which at it's height spanned all the way through the holy land an to Alexandria. (Captured mostly by the great general Belesarus.) The Byzantines are also the left overs of the Roman Empire, why not re-conquer the Roman Empire? That would make a fun and sometimes challenging game due to Byzantium's mostly outdated units. Or even the Holy Roman Empire? The Holy Roman Empire one time consisted of all of France, most of northren Italy, and modren Germany. In the old medival I had a fun game conquering the world as England. (Trying to outdo their latter accomplishments of the victorian time period.) In my Russian game in the first Medival I acctually tired to conquer the Soviet Union territories in the medival age, oh how fun was that... And even now in the new game I'm doing something simmilar. (I've got most of the Soviet territories in my current game.) Just some suggestions!

Or.. you could make an empire greater than any that came before it with.... SCOTLAND!!! Lol. Or Portugal or Sicily. Should be fun. ^_^

generally while playing with the turk i expand all the way to the egypt and hungary and then i stop for about 15-20 turns. I built up my cities and upgrade my armies and ofcourse the crusaders are more then enough to keep u busy than u can attack your next target.

How could I have forgotten the Ottoman Empire!

It sounds like you've basically got all the land that consisted of the old Ottoman Empire. (and some if you have Cairo and what not.) The Ottoman Empire would be plenty of fun to make and play as. Bwahaha! Ottomanize America!

I've already got all of the Balkans, North Africa, Egypt, the Middle East, Turkey, Italy (including all the islands) and moving up into the HRE's land

also, that Soviet thing sounds cool, I've been trying to find good Russian screenshots
