About this game
Crusades: Book II Continue the struggle for the eastern Mediterranean in Crusades: Book II, a tactical medieval wargame covering the wars that followed the failure of the Second Crusade and the long contest that led to the Third and Fourth Crusades. Beginning in 1149, the game follows a period of shifting alliances, fragile Crusader forces, and increasingly ambitious campaigns that reshaped the balance of the region. From the defeat at Inab and the rise of Nur al-Din, to Saladin’s victory at Hattin, the struggle for Jerusalem, the great operations of the Third Crusade, and the shocking diversion to Constantinople in 1204, this is an era defined by endurance, reconquest, siege warfare, and grand expeditions strained by distance and logistics. Take command in Crusades: Book II, where 40-meter hexes and 10-minute turns place you in control of armies fighting across the Levant, Anatolia, and beyond. Storm fortresses, hold vital routes, defend ports, and fight major battles.

The result is a broader and more developed battlefield than Book I, shaped by reconquest, counterattack, and increasingly large-scale coalition warfare. A Wider War of Sieges, Routes, and Reconquest Crusades: Book II expands the conflict…
