A land of faith.

A land of war.

Byzantium.

The majestic gateway to the east and the Crusades.

The Principality of Antioch a proud Crusader state and home to the Hospitallers.

Jerusalem the Holy City.

A Kindom forged by blood,steel and faith.

A place rewired by the faithfull and coveted by many.

In the east the mighty Seljuks led by Nur-A-Din.

Fighting to drive the ocursed Crusaders in to the sea.

And to the south rises the cunning Salah-Al-Din.

Builder of an Empire.

Empire ready to grind the Crusaders into the deserts sands.

This is a time of faith.

A time of battle.

A time of Total War.
