    Because of Crete, I would say Egypt.

    Crete is Venetian, as it is from the start. And for teh lulz and Crimea, I'll guess Venice.

    Oh, I thought I saw the Egyptian colors there. If it is indeed Venetian, then England is my guess... Too obvious, but what can I say?

    What you see is mostly Venice's secondary colour, which is used for the borders. If it were Egyptian it'd be mostly black.

    You are absolutely correct! I saw the map again and I noticed what you are saying about the secondary colors. This means that probably it's not Egypt, even though a Jihad on Baghdad is suspicious...

    To all those asking for treasury details and turn numbers. I accidentally saved over this exact save. I have a later one that is a few turns later at 74.

    I was...


    Explanation
    I started my game by diverting the usual Robert taking Rennes to take Aquitane. France failed in their turn 1 attempt. I took it by diverting all my major forces to france, taking Rennes too. I allied with everyone around me minus France and Scotland, that makes Portugal, Spain and Milan my ally.

    Then Scotland started looming around rebel York, I was determined to not let them take it so I detached a mockup force from London. When I took york, it seemed Scotland's AI went braindead, just standing outside york. I mustered 3 stacks and blitzkrieged Angers, Paris and that centre province, on Turn 1 of the war, France started for me by sieging Toulouse. I then sent my king from the centre province and reinforced Toulouse (so now a stack in the city + 10 units). Then Mr Popey, who was english ironically, told me to stop attacking them.

    I used the time to build forces to attack that city east of Toulouse and Rheims at the same turn which I did. Now counting down the timer til he allows me to procedd (doesn't help he's now french). Milan has betrayed me, yet want Ceasefire after their first stack was destroyed. As you can see I'm mustering for the Crusade. Regarding Scotland, sometime during la Guerre de Cent Ans, they stupidly let Edinburgh undefended.

    I declared war, I invaded, I won the war and destroyed Scotland in one turn. Turn 74 I now own Wales and Dublin. I didn't have trouble with them, lolisuck, I simply didn't have the time. I was focussed on France. Wales and Ireland, and indeed Inverness were simply not that useful or a priority.

    Rep

    Could someone rep Battlefield for me?

    I've repped him. I'll also create a new game within the next couple of days.

    Since Frunk seems to be occupied, .
    I've cooked up a map for you guys, a much more interesting one this time. Time and Treasury Included!

    Oh, God. That's a really strange one.
    Given the treasury, and the German expansion, I'd have to say HRE. But it would make it a little bit obvious. Poland would be my second guess.

    Aaaah, screw it. To me it's Poland.

    I agree, the map is strange. I shall guess the Holy Roman Empire.

    The obvious here is HRE, but I think the treasury proves this wrong. Not Poland for the same reason. So, I think one needs a starting rich domain to have so much money, that's why I'd go with the Byzantines.

    Nice map, quite a few options here. Venice and Sicily's expansion seems fairly normal, Poland has expanded quite nicely and Scotland has been far more active than its regular AI-self. I'd say the treasury is too big for Scotland and maybe Portugal so I'll exclude those. I don't think you're the Byzantines as that would be the worst Byzantine campaign I've ever seen. Losing Rhodes, failing to secure any rebel province around its core lands and expanding only towards one of the most useless settlements on the map (Sarkel).
    I'll go with the Holy Roman Empire, they've held off the Danes, taken most of the rebel settlements surrounding its lands including Dijon and Florence (I can't recall any campaign where I've seen either of them in AI HRE hands early on) and have enough lands for that treasury. I presume you either gave Cairo back to Egypt or abandoned it.
