@Gaypow Awesome. The Eastern Mediterranean is fantastically interesting; when I did my undergrad history degree I took every opportunity to write about the Byzantines and various iterations of Persia, and lately I'm getting into Islamic history as well. I still remember where I was the first time I read Saladin's life story -- what a fascinating dude.
@Gaypow But yeah raiding looks like a really cool mechanic for sure. One of my favorite things about Arumba's Building Tall series was the flood of comments about how weird it was to see the Norse raiding Constantinople, isn't CK2 wild, before someone inevitably points out that it happened in 860.
But yeah it's interesting to see the maps analyzing potential plunder, and managing your raiders to escape oncoming armies in time.
