Hello everybody, thought I'd contribute to a thread instead of my continued lurking :D

I started a campaign as the Sicilians/GA/Early/Normal/VI(Vanilla). This has been one of my most enjoyable campaigns yet, I think because I've learnt a lot more about the game (through these forums). Big thanks to frogbeastegg for his unit guide, helped me a lot.

Anyway, I started out by building up a navy to get my trade going and some $$'s. I then trained up a small army to take Naples from the Byzantines, don't really know why... I just felt the need to expand. That went well, so I decided to attack them at their mainland and quickly took Greece, bribed the army in Serbia and took it straight to Constantinople (which was so poorly defended I practically trotted in with half an army).

I saved the game shortly after in the year 1123 (not wanting to take any chances). I then played on until 1139, but I didn't like where the campaign was going so I decided to leave it at that and come back to the 1123 scenario later... probably tomorrow xD

>.< I have an picture but it appears I'm not allowed to post it... oh well, I'll post it in the update I suppose!

I'd like some advice, the Egyptians are fairly huge, just massing an enormous amount of troops in their homelands (which are my crusade goals...), and at war with the Byz. Should I go after them/finish off the Byz or head west into Europe and smite my fellow Christians?
