I've adjusted the Hearts of Lions campaign to a new one: Crown of Thorns, covering a fictional civil war in the mid-twelfth century between Amalric, brother of Baldwin III, King of Jerusalem, and the young Bohemond, Prince of Antioch. It begins upon the death of Baldwin III with Amalric aspiring to succeed his brother and climb the throne of the Kingdom of Jerusalem and Bohemond refusing to pledge his allegiance, making the first task of King Amalric I to suppress Bohemond by force.
The campaign unfolds over a series of eight year-long turns, from 1163 to 1170, as part of the conflict between two Frankish factions: Amalric of Jerusalem and Bohemond of Antioch. The armies of the two factions, although both Frankish, may consist of Frankish as well as Muslim and even Byzantine units.
Anyone up for playing either side, please let me know, here or by way of PM.
Please note that the campaign involves not only Field of Glory II: Medieval battles but also an extensive and complex (some'd say even complicated or overwhelming) set of rules for the campaign itself, so you would then 'need' to like strategic warfare board games as well.

Re: Crown of Thorns - Civil War in the Holy Land
Quite dead here with interest being pretty much zero.
