Really a minor problem and does not affect game play, but there is a mistake in the Civilopedia involving the Abbasids of the Middle Ages Conquests. The Entry and Victory screens show the leaderhead standin of Mursillis of the Hittittes but the Civilopedia uses the Arab leaderhead. For the record the game also uses the Arab king pieces as well. In the Civililopedia the Arab leaderhead is used twice as is the Mongol leaderhead.

As mentioned before, Western Church is unlocked but not useable until after researching horseback riding and castle building. This is for civs such as Germany, France and England. I have found that the same is true of the Arab civs only this time it is Arab learning that is only useable once you reach the new age. However, Byzantines and Viking civs do not have this delay because their civ specific research starts in the first researchable era or "Viking" era. The other civs must wait for the middle ages.
 
that ia meant to happen- the same leader typ, I would think, helps tp reflect the fact that all the arab cibs are essential difeernt divisions of the same culture, and there tech, along with "crusader statre" free tech is there to help kick the crusades into high gear...

let me say, that of all the conquests, this one is by FAR my favorite :), the only complaint I have is that the cataphracts are a bit weak, but for me at least, by the time the enmy has knights I usually have 2 or 3 cataphract armies to act as the protectors for the rest of my forces :)
