    2. I don't need to cheat to win... lol. As you will all see when our tournament duels are hosted by players other than myself. I'd rather neither player host the game, so cheating would be impossible. That way even joking accusations like that won't make sense.

    3. I actually sent that mercenary ship down there to scout the area, and when I saw his navy within range of attacking me, I thought; well, why not go down fighting. So I attacked and prepared to die, whilst taking his forces with me. Needless to say I was surprised I won.
    Yeah I was only joking, I have full trust in you. And it is possible to not have the admin console enabled you know, there is only a need for it in BC. The duel between me and Monk has no console.

    Thats an excellent point. I suppose I have it still turned on because of my administration over the BC2 hotseat.

    From now on, I'll disable it whenever I start another duel.

    We have more of our forces en route and even declared war on the Great Seljuks because... well, the more people I kill, the more evil I become.

    You have been offered a chance to surrender once more. But our patience is wearing thin. If you do not agree to our terms, more innocent blood will be on your hands.

    From the endless sands of the Arabian desert and the Sahara comes an evil so unspeakable that it shatters the imagination.

    The creature is not human, or perhaps once was but is no more. This thing has consumed entire villages, cities, castles, and empires. It feeds. It grows. It is unstoppable.

    This is the legend of Caliph Al-Mustansir the Tyrant.





    Mubarak the next Prince of Egypt overpowers the garrison at Antioch with minimal forces. They outnumbered us 2 to 1, with infantry, but our cavalry were unstoppable.



    The last of the Armenians, Captain Limburgha, dies before Crown Prince Mubarak's mighty horde.



    After the fall of Constantinople... now Istanbul...



    My diplomat has formed an alliance with my rival, Sicily... will I keep my word, or was this all just a ploy to get his map information?




    The Turkish Jihad has ended with their capture of Baghdad, and we immediately declare war on these Muslims who do not kneel before the Caliph.

    Current Priority: Seljuks

    REPLAY GAME, 1-0 Oman

    With the utter annihilation of our main forces at Aleppo, and the destruction of our reserve forces at the Edessa fortification, the battle seems to be swinging back in Jerusalem's favor. However, Jerusalem's forces are at half strength, while ours continues to grow overall.

    We now have three full stacks of reserve units, one of which just took Kermanshah (Seljuk), and is beseiging another Seljuk fortress. The war against the Seljuks is now irreversibly in our favor, we will utterly annihilate them.

    the Abassids are helpessly stuck in their final province, with enough troops to deter a direct assault... for now. But once my forces are in range, they are doomed.

    Should Jerusalem advance, their spies will take heavy hits from our counterspies, and if they succeed in taking Edessa, they will be holding already-sacked and totally worthless territory we can easily afford to lose, and they will also be placing their forces dangerously close to mine. As such, we do not fear an invasion by crusader forces at all. Let them come... let them come...

    Their blood will paint the way to the future!

    Strategy: Blitz
    Current Priority: Turks

    Mosul has fallen. Baghdad is next. The Turks' main holdings are not under threat, but the war is entirely in our favor. With our superior navy and the endless horde of infantry and cavalry I've spawned, it is only a matter of time.

    Meanwhile, our forward positions in Ragusa have advanced. The Venetians have assembled a mighty force of italian troops and mailed knights which we are not foolish enough to attack directly as they have a superior tactical position. However, we have enormous reserves coming from Thessalonica; the Istanbul invasion force.

    We have one large stack of troops en prise from pirates in the red sea, they have a chance to destroy our boat which will sink a rather heavy investment of jihadis moving from Jedda. These are the risks I am willing to take. Should they succeed, we will simply form another stack of troops closer to the front line with the money I save.

    We are now allied with the infidels in Sicily. Should they attack us now, their reputation will take a hit, and their navies no longer have zone of control advantages. Our alliance with them is nothing more than a tactical trump card, and we do not even hide it.



    ATPG versus Warman8, Vanilla 1.3
    Moors versus Holy Roman Empire.
    Turn 8
    Strategy: Blitz
    Current Priority: Spain and Italy

    The capital of Spain has fallen, and their main recruitment facility at Toledo is next. Palermo, Sicily is about to be destroyed, thus crippling Sicily forever. Their invasion fleet at Algiers scampered away like a bunch of cowards. No sign of any resistance from France, Milan, or the Holy Roman Empire.

    Editor's note: Please program the AI to engage in kamikaze attacks. If I am at war with a nation they should attempt to attack me if they are even close to the same strength forces.

    I feel confident that this war will go very well. We have begun conversion of Catholic Iberia, and we've managed to build the basic infrastructure blitzers require:

    Castles, ports, roads, religious buildings, spy buildings.

    What else could you possibly need?

    Kermanshah, Hamadan, and Qazvin have all become Arab territory. Tabriz is under seige, and a large rebel garrison at Kerman was utterly annihilated. The Latins have put one of our lesser provinces under seige... spies report that their forces are weak and are no threat to us.

    The Great Seljuks have lost more than half their territory to the Arab invasion. Our capital was moved to reflect the administrative center of our empire. Baghdad is trading at nearly 4000 per turn.

    The First Battle of Durazzo, in the War against the Crusade:


    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 


    Outnumbered and overmatched by superior Italian spear infantry, crusader knights, and a superior general....




    I do not deny my honourable opponent the chance for his forces to fight this battle and win.




    A charge and a hail of missile fire collapses his left flank... bringing out the enemy general...

    I allow my infantry archers to bear the brunt of a cavalry charge, and then I outflank the impetuous fools...




    His forces collapsing around him, the enemy general flees... but my cavalry is much lighter and more numerous.

    Your fleet is lost, and your friends down there at the seige of Durazzo will not survive.

    There is no escape.



    The general is beheaded... his forces scattered. Time to mop up the mess.



    We took losses, to be sure, nearly half. But the enemy are badly beaten today... they flee to their ships, which are promptly assaulted and repelled. They will desert the crusade.

    Meanwhile, two half stacks of ships and two full stacks of troops have arrived at Naples. We begin the counterattack.

    Palermo is under seige. We destroyed roughly half of the crusader force, but two generals with night fighter made it impossible to win the battle outright.

    We have slaughtered half of these pigs... we watch as their reinforcements arrive from the northwest.



    Our brave men slay the infidel general. His troops are without a leader... now they flee in panic! DESTROY THEM!!!



    Only now... at the end, do you understand.

    Nearly half of their invasion force lay dead this day. We lost the battle, but to the last man we fought. This is a phyrric victory for our opponents. Next time they will not be so lucky.

    Meanwhile, their capital is under seige. We will repay their betrayal with the blood of their women and children. Death comes soon for these traitors!



    I estimate that this war is still in our favor, unless Sicily can repel our invasion force.

    We have sufficient defenses in Constantinople, and in a few turns a Jihad will finish them. Meanwhile, Sicily will endure much bloodshed on their core territory.

    Warman8 .vs. ATPG
    Holy Roman Empire .vs. The Moors

    Turn 12
    Vanilla 1.3
    Strategy:Expand and Defense
    Current Priority: Western/Southern Border


    Taking a Rebel Town Next turn with superior Numbers... Increasing money supply with it. Getting ready to defend Southern border if Moors come though that direction....


    Holy Roman Empire Seems Weak to the Infidel Moors, but we are just slow. We will not die easily, and you will regret attacking us.

    Paris has fallen, France has been Obliterated, Rheims has fallen, we are camped outside Metz where an inferior force of HRE troops is laying seige. Go ahead and take it...

    Marseilles is under seige, Durazzo has fallen, Another Pope has been slain...

    4 factions destroyed. Forces circling. Prepare to meet your doom, infidel.

    So... the Popemeister called a crusade all by himself... lolz.

    His selfish demand to obtain Rome will reduce the Catholics' chances of defeating the Moorish Empire... and waste their one and only trump card in the face of a Jihad.

    I wonder if destroying the Pope over and over again will end the crusade....

    Metz is under seige, with all access routes cut off. Florence is under seige. Corinth is under seige. Marseilles has been captured. The Byzantine Empire is crumbling under our assault, and a new threat has been launched from southern France...

    All graphs favor the Moors, save 'production'.

    Yet another Pope has been slain.

    Not at all, worthy opponent. In fact I am preparing a Guide to Duels as we speak, that I might share all my blitzmaster secrets with all my opponents before the Tournament begins. That way, there will be no surprises next time.

    I look forward to completing your training.... in time, you will call me... master.

    ATPG versus Ibn-Khaldun, Vanilla 1.3
    Egypt v Sicily
    Turn 20
    Strategy: Jihad
    Current Priority: Paris, France

    .....



    In the Year 1118 of the Christian Calendar....


    Long have the mighty armies of the Egyptian Caliphate held back their religious fervor...


    Long have the Holy Warriors of Islam born the insults of Crusaders attacking their lands.....


    Long have we tolerated the existence of the Sicilian, a name now synonymous with Traitor.


    We will tolerate their unwashed existence no longer, on our soil or on any other. They have now been targeted for extermination.


    They have offended Allah with their false religion and their unholy war against us.


    Now the time has come to bury our knives deep into the belly of the infidel....



    In the Year 1118 of the Christian Calendar, Mahfouz the Great Imam spoke with Allah... after many seasons of prayer, Allah had said nothing.


    Now, Allah spoke... and smiled upon Mahfouz and the plight of the pious Egyptian warriors. Now there would be a Holy Jihad declared against the infidel. Now... we would have our revenge.

    The Fortress of Palermo was the first to fall, and our mighty army there joined the Jihad, and destroyed the Crusader that walked the Island of Sicily. Then they landed in Tunis and laid seige to the infidels there.

    The fort near Naples, where the Infidel had sallied forth unsuccessfully last turn, was captured and the Infidels there were burned and buried alive. They set sail for Corsica and Sardinia after joining the jihad.

    A captain in Corinth commanded 3 mighty Malmuk Horse Archers, some peasants, and some javelinmen and killed the Infidel King Roger of Sicily, hated Crusader. He was promoted the same day to the rank of Malik.

    The large army which had just taken the Turkish capital of Ikonion last turn joined the jihad, and a second general also joined the jihad there, forming another large force. Our Imams stormed into former Byzantine lands.

    Another large army took Tbilisi, and was about to join the jihad.

    Another large force formed in Gaza and joined the jihad.

    In total, over 6 mighty hordes of Islamic warriors declared that they would pledge their lives to the erradication of the Sicilian Infidel, and the target of the Jihad was to be that second bastion of pagan thought, Paris.

    No longer would the armies of Islam tolerate the Christian scum... now they would all die...







    Let the blood of the infidel run in rivers and turn the oceans red.

    Our response to the Egyptian PR spokesmen would be: blah blah blah ...

    Too many words and too little actions

    We will take Corinth soon and will retake Naples from the hands of the Mamluk infidels ..
    If we lose the islands then so be it .. they aren't worth much to risk the loss of our armies ..

    When this duel is over in but a few short turns, Egypt will take great pleasure at your grovelling apology.



    Our actions are about to begin!
