M2TW: Kingdoms: Crusade

I thought to take a break from the England campaign and now I am playing the expansion, Kingdoms, I am playing the crusade.

I picked Egypt. And all I could say is that I am ownage.

I picked the difficulty level of medium.

To make things short...before the Mongols came most of the Kingdom of Jerusalem had been conquered by me.

This time of playing, the Kingdom conquered a city on Cyprus...by luck I foudn out...while sailing, and I sent an army to conquer it. I also sailed around to cyprus other side and coqnuered the other city from Greek Rebels.

I sailed agin and found that the Kingdom had coqnuered a city on Asia Minor, next to Turkish cities. I send an army to conqeur that.

My guess is that they have one city left, adn I am going over to conquer it.

My power is Supreme I have never been as rich as this ever before (more than 50,000 florins).

Once I finish off the Kingdoms, Ill help my allies, the Turks, agaisnt the Principality, since they helped me in one vicious battle against the Kingdom.

Ill post a map later.

good luck ahmed

good luck indeed..so you are against the mongols?

The Mongols always hit the Turks, my allies, first. SInce the first place they sack is Baghdad...under Turkish control.

I will wiat till they draw a ceasfire then try and become allies with the Mongols, as they are also Muslims and could participate in Jiahds (Allaiance is not required to join a Jihad, but there is a bigger chance that they will join the Jihad)

I know, I understand that. what if they do not have a ceasefire with Turks?

Then I cant ally with them.

This is the map:



I am Yellow.

Turks are green

Princapality is blue

Byzantine is Purple

Kingdom is white

Red is venice

I was 3000 florins in debt so I started attacking the Principle. I pretty much wiped out their land...they ahve like 4 left...note that at the end I focused my attention back to the 2 last settlemts of Kingdom, but they are across the sea, and when I sail Principal ships sink me...

I am extremly rich (20,000 florins)

The Byzantine empire conquered all of cyprus from me.

oh....what is the Kingdom, I mean, which kingdom?

Kingdom is short for Kingdom of Jerursalem...that has Richard the Lionhart.

oh, so it is under the Crusader's control...take it back!

unlikely the kingdom is probably going to be a thorn in your side for some time.

perhaps...but is not Lionhearted suppose to get defeated by Salahudin?

Well Lionheart either got killed or passed away. Saladin passed away...he was my best general ever!

And Pried is right, the byzantines sometimes help the Kingdom and the Principality sinks my ships that ahs my armies and geenrals in them.

Vemice is my ally BTW.

interesting...how come?

How come what?

i don't trust ships

How is Venice your ally?

Its weak, I am supreme..so it offered to be my ally. I accepted...I could finish it anytime lol. However, it soemtimes helps me fight the Principlaity and the Byzantines.

Well I lost since I didn't destory Kindom in the amount of turns indicated.

I started a new Egypt game today and I won:



Now, I will continue and try and eliminate the Principality...and the Mongols and Turks are fighting...

umm..sorry for your loss..but Congratz on your winning...that's even stevan

I re-continued this game.

I saw the Principlaity starting to fight the Turks...I started saughtering them.

Look at the map:



As you can see there is a gray spot...the people in that city rebelled agasint me.

As you notice in the South (Sinai), a Mongol hord (the off-white color) arrived and invaded the city there...

P.S.: I am the yellow, the Turks are green and the Principlaity is Blue.

you should try taking over the middle east. before you attack Europe.

Pried you do notice that there is only 1 European city in the Crusades game?

P.S.: The city is Constantinople...which is currently owned by the Byzantine Empire.

I'll explain what happened later but here is the map:



Yellow=Egypt(Me)
Green=Turks(My allies)
Purple=Byzantines
Gray=Rebels (Rules by no faction)
Quick Overveie:

I eliminated the Mongols and Venice. The Turks eliminated the Principality of Antioch.

I captured Constantiople (The only European City) via a Jihad.

I am thinking of switching my capital frm Cairo to Constantinople ^-^
