For hardcore strategy gamers!

Hey all,

Reason why I named the topic as such is cause I have a difficult question here that I think only a hardcore gamer would be able to answer!

Here we go: I've played a strategy game some years ago that had a lot of factions (I remember only Byzantines and Fatimid/Caliphs or so!) where you can invade territories and such. It featured that you can start a holy crusade (or jihad) and you had to spread your religion or people may revolt. One thing I'm sure about is that every now and then the game held an election for the "king of kings" as I remember where all rulers voted for the ruler to "rule them all" or something like that and you had to cast your vote when that happened. Also when you got elected, the game ended as far as I remember!

I know what I've described has a lot in common with Medieval (or Medieval II) but I don't remember that Medieval had an election (other than for pope) that you could get elected for! Can someone PLEASE help me identify this game! I've been trying to remember its name for DAYS now!

Thanks for your help :)

Medieval 2 Total War

Obviously! GOSH!

I have no idea sorry:?

I think he is right. Pretty sure the game name is Stronghold Heaven (or one of the many other Stronghold titles/expansions)

Medieval 2 Total War

I think you're right. He basically described Medieval 2 perfectly in the first post.

i think Knights of Honour might be it. i had the opportunity to play it for a few days, and it was surprisingly good. Jinroh_basic

YES YES YES YES .. THAT'S IT ..

YOU DON'T KNOW HOW THANKFUL I AM (to the extent that I used caps!!)

Thanks for everyone who tried helping here .. But it is in fact Knights of Honor!!

You're the best guys!

Here's a link to the review here on GS (8.0 & 8.7 user review - not bad in my humble opinion!)
