Spreading Judaism Across the World | Kingdom of Jerusalem | Medieval Kingdoms 1212 A.D.

[zachman1201]

I am happy to being posting my series on the Kingdom of Jerusalem and Cyprus in Medieval Kingdoms 1212 A.D. where the objective will be to simply convert to Judaism and spread it around the map! I am playing with several sub-mods: Double- Units, Simple Conversion, 4TpY, and 1.5x faster research speed. This is a beefy play through and I am glad to share it with everyone! I am playing on hard (I'm no legendoftotalwar) especially since KoJ has a very hard starting point. In this episode, King Hugues takes on the crusade and begins to conquer northern Africa! I hope you enjoy, let me know your thoughts in the comments, especially strategic moves I should make for each episode. Enjoy!

Great start! As you said, the Kingdom of Jerusalem looks like a real challenge. I agree, it's fun to play (and to watch) a campaign when the player is defeated sometimes - and it's useful to see the effects of the mods you're using.

In this episode, King Hugues, moves to conquer smaller kingdoms in Northern Africa before declaring war on the Arabic faction surrounding Jerusalem!! Let me know what strategic moves you think I should make next!

Haha thanks man, yes I try to give a very raw showcase of the average total war player I lose a lot

You're welcome!

The Defenders of the Faith have a tough job, defeating the rebels in Nubia while also trying to expand to the south. That was a brutal fight at the fort entrance. It was cool that you used the fort's choke-point against the defenders, bringing a lot of archers (I really like having archers too).

King Hugues died in between episodes and now his son Antoine rules along side his brother Thierry. Together, they wage all out war against the Muslim factions that surround them! Will they be able to survive? Also, Jerusalem leaves the catholic faith and converts to Judaism, now how far will it spread? Enjoy!

Cool update! Like you, I wondered what the effects of changing your faction's religion would be. Your diplomatic moves, like the alliance with Pisa, sound important when other factions are allying against you.

It looks like the Kingdom of Jerusalem is well-defended, despite the strong attacks around Aqaba.

This is a continuation of a Let's Play from over a year ago before I paused my YT channel. I decided to continue it - though with some changes. No longer can I use the conversation mod or faster research turn time as the MK 1212 has been updated since and certain submods haven't caught up. Of course, the family is almost entirely different, but I've done my best to make sure that the heir to the KoJ is pure family blood! What is the same is traits of thee original family, diplomacy, and of course, the territory and the year where this episode starts from. I hope you enjoy!

It seems to be a good sign when your enemy tries to pay to accept a peace treaty!
