You can do this now. If the Byzantine Emperor hires the Varangian Guard, it’s selectable from his list of vassals and playable. Furthermore, all mercenary captains with no other titles get the same conquest casus belli on any kingdom as the Mongols. I believe the Mamluks might be playable as well, but I haven’t tested this, and it would be even more historical.
But its game over if you take land, right? Quite fun, though. Until it ends..

Edit: Oh, only if your first title is a province with a city. Muahaha. I'll see what its like acquiring more after this.

Edit2: So, that apparently makes it worse, because you're not able to raise your men for free anymore.

Zechs, you're doing it wrong :laugh:
Invade Sweden while it's in a civil war! That'll both give you land and let you raise your own men for free!
