yep. but you can kill them off really easily.

again, it's not really a historical strat game. it's a court management game in a semi-historical setting. while it is marketed as the first, which leads to disapointment, in gameplay, it's ... almost excellent.

I have to drink more kool-aid now.

That sort of crap is also nowhere near as common as it used to be.

I can't seem to get enough money to field over 2k troops. Getting slaughtered by massive Moor armies that have already wiped out most other Christian kingdoms. :osama:

Expect your treasury to plummet into negatives whenever you wage war, it's been that way since day one. AI is unable to go into negative treasury so it has an easier time of it.

Is that a change in the expansion or do you mean with the vanilla game?

saskganesh

its in both games. AI has different money rules.

one money cheat for the Player is to never reload after you get a higher title. then your treasury is auto-adjusted to 0 if negative at the start of every month.

of course, there are other side effects of not reloading.

All the other AI-only events, for instance...

I got this for the 9.99 deal and I am enjoying it.  First game is, as always, the attempt to make the Hohenstauffens into 1) Dukes of Schwabia, then 2) HRE.  St. Gallens is not the most adventagous starting point, but it is fun.

Try Saxony. Even though it isn't as easy before DV, you are in position to strike at the evil Danes.
