Well, I *think* I solved the CTD issue (turns out the computer needed rebooting...*touch wood*). Now I've begun a Castile-Leonese/Early/Hard/GA/XL 3.0 campaign...and even though I only got to play part of the first turn, I'm not in rushing-mode when I play, so I feel like a true Medieval monarch . Hehe...I know that's Egyptian, but that smiley is kinda cool, so yes, I had to use it.

I also uninstalled M2TW...I just could not get into it. I might dabble in RTW again one day...but M1TW has won my heart. That and animation. LOL.

Oh and Roark...why would you go and do a thing like that, getting yourself married? Do you get any lands if your wife's faction is eliminated? *Joking!*
