Ok double post as I get things back into gear with new computer.

So first lets try to get the wife on the throne of East Francia.

Part 59

Followed by the cruel death of a wonderful heir...

Part 60
 
So you know...to take my mind off the loss of that wonderful heir...time to pick more wars!

Part 61
 
Also time to finally solve the Scotland issue. I will not let them be a Theocracy!

Part 62
 
Larger penalty than expected from dealing with Scotland but no matter. Unexpected death can always solve things. Which means of course I have a long life ahead of me.

Part 63
 
A return to the Holy Land. I have a good feeling about things this time!

Part 64
 
And with that all done we begin another attempt at taking East and West Francia.

Part 65
 
Murder and a marriage. Maybe I should worry how much this game has made me think that is a natural way to do things...

Part 66
 
Due to issues with getting a new video card installed today you get two updates. In them we meddle in Poland and angst about the King of France and his many daughters.

Part 67

Part 68
 
I really should have been picking on the Byzantines earlier.

Part 69
 
I should also have done something about the Mali region. The southwest really is easy pickings.

Part 70
 
And here we make a move to properly take the fight to the Caliph. No more nibbling at his outermost territories we go for somewhere rich and near to the Holy Land.

Part 71
 
You know it would be completely broken if you could send people on targeted adventures. Hmm...

Part 72
 
This new marriage is really going to pay off in the long run.

Part 73
 
Ahh the Mongols have finally showed up. And more interesting of all another chance to try my hand at a Crusade. Anatolia will be mine!

Part 74
 
Taking Anatolia...is not a quick and easy thing.

Part 75
 
Mmm...that tastes like gooood conquered lands.

Part 76
 
Of course the Caliph isn't going to just let me keep it. Well I say bring it on!

Part 77
 
But just as sure as the sun will rise the Jihads fail against my might!

Part 78
 
And...not Irish anymore. Damnit! This will make complications...

Part 79
 
One thing I do hate is that you lose all your cultural buildings when you change culture...which is annoying. Convert them or something! Or at least some fee to convert them from one to the other but let me have what I paid for.
