RR is OFF for this campaign. 70 turns of spear militias galore is not my idea of a fun hotseat by any standard. Even if we account for Crusades/Jihads.
OK for now we have:
Muslims: Silver Shield as the Crusader States, LooseCannon1 as the Moors (lol good luck with that position!)
Catholics: Me as England, Ashurnasirpal II as Leon-Castille
Visorslash will pick last. Nightbringer, slysnake and Ezilkannan can pick now. I advise Ezilkannan to play as a Muslim faction simply to have one new player in each team. (The Fatamids are the strongest, the Kwazremians have the most secure position and the best early game units - the K. Nobles)
Just a reminder. We are playing Stainless Steel version 6.4 with no other submods installed. I'll post details on the starting screen later (we will play with the top AI selection, the one that has 10/10 for aggressiveness and backstabbing). This will game will allow you to fight all your battles. You are allowed to call AND join Crusades/Jihads (But only vs target cities). Assasination attempts are one per turn, and must be the first thing you do when you start your turn, before you do anything else!
The art of war, then, is governed by five constant
factors, to be taken into account in one's deliberations,
when seeking to determine the conditions obtaining in the field.
These are: (1) The Moral Law; (2) Heaven; (3) Earth;
(4) The Commander; (5) Method and discipline.

yay, no more farmer armies
I was thinking of playing as a muslim faction too , its been a long time since I played as one of those, I'll pick the Kwarezmians
Looks like Iberian peninsula is going to get very hot in this game![]()
If by "hot" you mean ravaged by Crusades and Jihads, then yes :)
