I don't understand the main benefit of a crusade in MTW2. In MTW1 you called a crusade and you could "add" units from other countries as the crusade went past, but they've removed that here. So I can only see the benefit as being that you can freely go through other countries without diplomatic penalty. You still have to put up all the troops (except they get those little crosses in their unit cards) and you still have to formally declare war and take the diplomatic hit on the target. So what's the benefit to calling one, aside from game flavour?
