Fan of Medieval crap. You will love this game.

The companion game: Crusaders, Thy Kingdom Come (Longass, Superfluous Title), was released before this game and is concerned with the 1st Crusades. This game involves the 3rd Crusades. (2nd Crusades barely happened, embarrassing and not game-worthy; youd lose in the second level, per historical accuracy). But this game is an awesome and unique strategy. In the older, first installment, you get to choose 1 of 5 heroes to play as with unique traits and abilities to apply; depending on the faction you support most in-game you will get between 1 or even 2 sub-heroes with the same principles. (There are fun, interactive Political elements to these games). Everything levels, get abilities and skill points to apply, everything; men and heroes.

This game contains the same principle, although you are stuck playing Richard The Lionhearted (or Saladin if you play Saracen campaign). But regardless, you still can earn sub-heroes through political achievements or even through different sub-missions or choice-options after defeating a province. This game also adds MORE and new RPG elements to the game. In the form of permanent buff-giving Elixirs or useable Potions, Weapons and Armor that you find (for units). For heroes you use Holy items that grant military buffs. Theres endless combinations of how you can conquer the map through chosen territories/rewards, unit purchasing/upgrading/building.

If you ARE a strategy whore like myself you will love this game. Especially a meticulous one. There are MULTIPLE ways to win, as I said, especially through tactics and the men you decide to incorporate and use. Especially depends on which battle-plan for which kingdom you decide to go with.

The Saracens were also super-fun (although way HARDER). They ARE different. Relatively the same. Mid-late game units, completely different. Saracens use more tricks and speed generally and rely on attack power or hit and run while Crusaders rely on a few more formations (such as Shield Wall which is exclusive to Westerners) and generally heavier units. So there is a fun trade-off and a DISTINCTION between sides.

(Which in most strategies THERE IS NOT. Just different colors or skins or 1 trait/unit). You can use HEAVY Cavalry to also trample by holding the mouse button down and clicking a direction BEHIND the enemy ground-unit. You can make them engage after or even do it again after they overshoot.
