Ok, after I heard about MTWII: Total War, I thought I would see what all the fuss is about. So I am now very much into my English campaign, but I find crusading difficult. Marching through Europe, the crusade gains troops from provinces, but about when I get to Turkey troop numbers start to deplete and so I do not have enough troops to take over the target province (in this case Edessa/Antoich etc.) So how can I make a crusade a success?
