my opinion.. Crete back to Byz and give Venice another city?

[Pivra]

As a small suggestion..as for 6.0 can KingKong make Padua or Verona in Italy and give it to Venice instead of having them unhistorically owning Crete which didnt become Venetians' until after the Fourth Crusade? Another one.. can you make Nicromedia for the Byz and give Nicaea to the Turks? After all, it was their capital before the first crusade..


Thank You Very Much

Crete is a mean to make Venetians be more interested in Balkans and Greece than in HRE... We take that out and we have Venice not doing what they historically were doing...

The other thing, why not if it doesn't get too cramped there.

Are they actually doing that? In my games the Venetians are never more than a minor factor. They're always losing Crete to the Fatimids, the eastern provinces to the BE and the italian ones to France or so and end up with Caffa, which never gets assaulted. And from there they sometimes attack Sinope and lose it afterwards. I actually think the AI doesn't get around with those far-stretched provinces.
Gamewise it wouldn't make any difference giving it to the BE. I guess they'd lose it to the Fatimids too, like they do with Rhodes and Athens sometimes. At least in my games.

Give them Corfu.
