Crusade Bug

**Ham the Pharoah** · January 29, 2008, 08:13 AM

So, I'm playing with the Ayubbid Sultanate. I conquered all of the holy land except for Jaffa, which I'm besieging. At the start of the turn, it says a crusade has landed on the shores of the holy land to retake it from the muslims. I can't see that anywhere, and I tell my army to assault Jaffa. The assault goes clean and everything, but right after I take the city a KoJ army turns up standing in the city. This causes the cursor to turn into the hourglass and the screen freezes. I'm guessing that the crusading army had landed in Jaffa while I was besieging it, but couldn't show up because it was besieged. I know I can easily bypass this bug by simply lifting the siege and allowing the crusading army to show up, but I just thought I'd inform you guys. The mod rocks btw

Update: It hasn't worked. If I remove the siege, the army doesn't turn up. I I siege and assault again, the bug happens again.

What year is it? It may have landed on the shores of Anatolia if it's before...1191 I think.

It IS 1190 actually. Is this what's causing it? The existence of a crusading army but no settlement?

Let me explain what happening, and assure you nothing is buggy or wrong:

- Freezing is happening because you are capturing the KoJ's last settlement and they are forming into a horde, wait 5-10 min and it will clear up.

- The 1st crusader army before 1190 will show up near Nicaea. The second after 1190 at Acre port. They show up regardless of whether the KoJ has any settlements or not.

That explains it. Thanks for your help mirage41, John I Tzimisces!

but is it correct that any crusader army showed on my map till now?? i'm playing in 1199 and using KoJ...haven't seen any crusader army in the holy land...also the onli event correlated with crusades that appeared me was the rise at power of Riccardo III "Lionheart" does it is normal??

Well the Crusaders show up based on in-game conditions related to the KoJ. If KoJ is doing alright and hasn't lost Jerusalem, Jaffa or Acre then they won't show up.
