Please explain the issue you experienced in the most condensed way possible
For the past 3 out of 4 crusades, 2 being for the Kingdom of Jerusalem and 1 for the kingdom of Syria, the allied Catholic holy war armies do something real odd. Instead of disembarking in the holy land and trying to win the war, they disembark around the high chiefdom of Syrte (modern day Libya) and march in to the center of Africa through the Sahara desert in 1 big doom stack. Doing this, they lose over half their total troops and lose the holy war before a single battle is even fought. For a game called "Crusader kings" I can't do the crusading part unless if I tried to solo the entire holy war with a doom stack of mercenaries as an empire.
Please explain how to reproduce the issue
Wait until a Crusade is called in 1.3.3
Join the Crusade
Wait until many allied armies show up in the sea
Most armies will follow the popes army, which goes to Africa.
(may not always work, once the crusade worked properly, but a 25% success rate ain't great)
Is there anything else you think could help us identify/replicate the issue?
Not sure if it matters as all, but this only happened when the Byzantine Empire owned part of Cyrenacia, a common area for expansion for them. Unfortunately I was playing Ironman mode, so don't have a save to show for it.
I have attached a save game
