a suggestion for modder,in medieval history almohades have controled tunise and liby ,logicelly we must add a almohade faction and it's too cool if we add al moravides.

In tunisia there were the Zirites, a sub almohads faction...

**Nikephoros** · February 22, 2006, 03:10 PM

we are just adding the zirites, because an important front for the almohad would have been the southern spain.
And we can't add spain, because with spain, we should have added france. And with france, Germany, and with Germany, Poland, Russia and so on.
For that, there's Chivalry.

The Ziride Caliphate was a minor branch of the almohads in northern africa (Tunisia, mainly), with more or less the same kind of units (spanish units apart)

firstable i'm from tunis and i know very well the history of my contry,secondly,zirrite weren't a minor branch of the almohads,they were a minor brach of the fatimide,they ruled tunis on the name of fatimide and they diseappear in 1148 by the death of the last king Abû Mannâd Bâdis Naçir al Dawla.this is illogical,and the almohades ruled between 1160-1236 after that the haffside hafcide 1236-1574.

**Nikephoros** · February 27, 2006, 06:33 AM

well, sorry. We don't know anything about tunisian history

but i think you already got that

But we already explained the problem: almohades need spain. Spain needs france, france needs germany and\or england. For the european factions, there's chivalry

ok sir i inbderstand this .but the area of actualy modern iraq and persia were under the rule of abbassides and seljuks.and turkey were ruled by the rum seljuks(arab historian call them like thats) i saw in the campaing map that the seljuks dominnance is only turkey?i suggest that the caliph must have the same power of the pope( senat) the caliphe gouverne only baghdad and the seljuks the other partie.sorry for this trouble.

hi @lankazame, have you done this by yourself? it's great

**Nikephoros** · June 20, 2006, 03:30 PM

you're a genius, man!

it needs maybe one or two minor changes (like faction colours, nothing more, don't worry), and it will be Perfect (capital P)

Yes, I've made this because I'm very interrested by your mod, I love the crusades period...

I changed certain colors because some of them are similar, and that made the map a little confused. But the colours can vary

(sorry for my pitiful english
