Well, it was a matter of pride...I wasn't going to sit there and concede my province to them, and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to take some of those lands I coveted - it will open up the entire West to me.
So stuff him...I've decided to ignore the excommunication - my assassin who I've been training up, getting him to off hapless emissary newbies, has now gotten up to 6th rank and is on his way to Rome. [img]graemlins/evillaughter2.gif[/img] In any case, Pope Nicholas II is 82 and should croak soon.
So far the Germans have been conceding their provinces because I've got too many troops invading, though it's been a bit of a pain having to uproot them from their castles. I lost a 7 star general in a siege where I outnumbered them by 25 to 1, just because a lucky shot from their catapult happen to hit him while I was positioning him for the charge. Bugger.
