[SoI] Rollin' and Trollin' - The KoJ

And unfortuately, the GORP (General Olaf's Rights Party) has no chance to do anything - they don't get any votes. Loving this story BTW, hoping for another update soon. ;)
 
You know, this is what happens when you put "Trollin" in the story title :lol:

See? Everyone wrote the story for you!
 
Is the story going to continue?

Of course, why would it not?

With his focus beginning to turn elsewhere, Baldwinquickly decided that the funds he was currently spending on various wars he wasn't even fighting could be diverted elsewhere. Quickly, Baldwin met with the Fatamid and Abbasid emmisarries and brought about peace deals, eliminating to huge threats to the growing Kingdom.

When word got to the south that Peace had been brokered with the Fatamids, the Kingdom's Army could begin its advance to take the most important city in all of Muslimdom. They had their sights set on humiliating Islam once and for all. They were focused on Mecca.

Meanwhile, a group of Citizens had fled from the North and settled a new city along the west coast of Arabia. Tabuk was founded by fleeing refugees who had come in to escape what was going on in the north of the kingdom. While Baldwin WOULD be focused on getting the city Jewish-ified, he had a much more dire problem.

The citizens had good reason to flee, as Barbarians from the shifting sands of the vast Arabian Desert had been bearing down on Kerak, a city that was actually Larger than the Capitol of Jerusalem. Baldwin was intent on stopping these uncultured goons from stopping his own expansion.

Meanwhile the south Army had finally reached the city that the Natives of this land spoke of in a hush tone. The Captiol of the Islamic Relgious World. Mecca. The operation for invasion was in complete secret from the surrounding Empires. If say, the Fatamids or the Seljuks found out that a Jewish King of a Christian Nation was going to take over a Muslim City, then they would certainly have qualms about an invasion.

The battle was fierce, only Baldwin's Cavalry was able to smash through the staunch Meccan defenses. This was both a blessing and a curse for the city, on one hand, Baldwin had won, he had taken the city once thought unconquerable. Yet on the other hand, he could not massacre the Inhabitants with only a single Cavalry unit.

And so, Mecca was spared.
 
Gold! Gold!
 
The Pilgrims of Islam will have to fund a Christian Kingdom lead by a Jew...

Will we have Zoroastrians also?
 
The way this gane is looking, the Buddhists might just pack up and leave.
 
:bump: in hope of Krugs return
 
I just noticed that the pic that is supposed to be the Abbassid leader is actually a pic of the Crusaders capturing Mecca.

And what happened to Krug's planned Venice run in RFCEurope?
 
Or, for that matter, this?
