    Yeah, I'm a big fan of the KoSJ roster. Cretan Archers, Rhodian "slingers" as well as epic knight units. It's a very formidable force.

    {grand_bailiff_rhodes_desc}The Grand Bailiff who was responsible on Rhodes for the defense of the Castle of Saint Peter and later of the Island of Gozo. Due to its geographical position as a gate to the Aegean Sea, Rhodes has always had a vantage position on the trade routes between the West and the East and has been an important stop thanks to its well protected harbours. During the Hellenistic period in the late 4th century BC, the town of Rhodes was already enclosed in defensive walls which allowed to withstand the siege of Demetrius Poliorketes king of Macedonia, in 305 BC. The famous Colossus of Rhodes was built to thank gods for the victory against Demetrius.\n\nWhen the Knight Hospitallers conquered the island in 1310, the town was still wealthy but in decline. Rhodes underwent an economical growth thanks to the richness that the knights brought in from the Holy Land and to the inheritance of the Templars' assets.\n\nThe richness of the island attracted the Ottomans from the nearby coast. The knights started continuous works on the fortifications, both to include the new villages and to update the fortification to the new military defensive techniques after the artillery started to be used. The Knights had had a long experience in building fortresses and fortifications during the almost three centuries of their stay in the Holy Land, nevertheless the reference model for the construction of the fortification were the Theodosian Walls of Constantinople which, during the centuries, had shown a great capacity to withstand sieges.\n

    If any adjustments need to be made let me know. Also if there any duplicate ancillaries for rhodes let me know and I will adjust fire.

    I may be mistaken but it seems like the Duchy of Athens does not get many of the office ancillaries (treasurer, chancellor, seneschal, etc.) if this is intentional can someone let me know. If it is not do they need to to be added?
