So I reloaded, destroyed everything and removed my troops. Let's se how he plan to pay those troops with no income!
My emisaries are on their way to offer those generals a better source of income...

he just pulled the same s**t on me!
if i got this right, his troops show up in provinces with zeal over 90%? (or it was just a strange coincidence in my case).
anyway, the guy just shows up with ~10k troops (everything from archers and spearmen to royal cavalry, mounted archers and a couple different kinds of riflemen) in four of my provinces, so i'm like 'WTF?!?!?!' [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img] . luckily, i had one of my armies in one of those provinces and two other armies are nearby (will engage him the next turn). the one army that was already there however, was attacked by some 3900+ troops, against my 1900; but i figure i'm on defense so i should be able to take them [img]smile.gif[/img] . so i start with 4x20 royal cavalry (including my king) and 12x60 chivalric men@arms. i grab a good defensive position in a big forrest on top of a hill and about four hours (!!!) later the last unit of enemy spearmen are fleeing from the battlefield. end result - 3150 enemy killed or captured against just 185 of my own killed!
a brilliant strategic victory if i do say so myself
. that po(o)pe can just kiss this [img]graemlins/finger.gif[/img] . as soon as i kick the crap out of his three remaining armies that is. one of which is about 4-4.5k troops, the other two are about 1.5-2k. can't wait to take them on [img]smile.gif[/img] . i can always eat and sleep another day... god i love this game!
