Do you try and hang onto your conquest or simply give it back up to the original owners without too much of a fight?
I am playing LTC 2.1 on VH/H settings, my gallant Spaniards conquered Antioch as the successfull culmination of a Holy Crusdade in the year 1192. It is now 1212 and I am still being battered by relentless attacks from the previous owners the Turks. I have had to buy them off with a huge bribe for a ceasefire, to give my beleagured garrison a chance to retrain and patch up the city walls, but I am under no illusion as to this ceasefire lasting.
In between attacks I have spent a fair bit of money developing the place and have managed to convert the majority of the population to the Holy Mother Church, and I will be dammed if I am going to give my hard fought for prize up.
Problem is that my whole campaign seems to have become bogged down, and focused almost solely on keeping Antioch, while my armies at home are doing nothing more than keeping my frontiers secure from the French & Germans who are sniffing about for a weakness in my defences.
Should I swallow my pride and allow my punch drunk garrison to beat an hounorable retreat, or do I fight to the bitter end for my toehold in the middle east?
