I have looked at the WIKI ... it is not all that clear.
As best I can figure out as Ireland in 1066, I always have a CB against any flavor of Islam and the declaring and capturing is a bit different from intra-faith claims.
Now, there is the "grand event" when The Pope calls for a Crusade. It is this thing that I don't much understand. I as King am supposed to work through the larger mechanics of the Catholic World. The WiKi doesn't say so much. Nor do the DEV Diaries.
There are, at least, 100 quality LP's on YouTube playing as Feudal/Catholic. But there is not single video(s) guide to playing the historic crusades. Of course, within in 10,000 hours of video, there is probably a Crusade or two, but many these LP's are named 'Becoming France Episode 01-70'. Which offers very little insight where some crusade play might appear.
Now, originally, I thought I just made my pledge of money and troops to The Pope and at a certain time (2 years) my troops would march off to The Holy Land. If I wanted there was a big WarScore score board display to update me on what was going on, but I could just stay in Ireland. Now, it seems that my conscious self somehow leaves Ireland with a regent left behind, and I march Irish troop to join the termite swarm crossing Europe.
I am seriously confused ... how this is supposed to work.
Does anyone have a list of 4-5 YouTube entries within in a large LP that demonstrates how the Christian Crusades called by The Pope works. I understand the vassal/liege/defacto/dejure/title hierarchy decently ... but I am totally lost on this aspect. But for most game tutorials, by the time The Crusades roll around "you are on your own, Bud".
Help please? Thanks.
