Don't rewrite history because finaly you were the vanquisher, if i remember well Templars crusade was a success, it turn into a complete fail afterward...
The war never ended until we made a peace agreement with the Templars towards the end of old strat, after our victory. Just because they assumed they had beaten us into nothing was their idiotic mistake.
We abandoned our village fiefs in the desert with all we could carry leaving behind only a skeleton force and taking the bulk of our forces over to our allies lands. We never intended to hold there against them. No shit they pushed us out the desert, we left by ourselves, to come back and fight on our own terms.
Learn2history. Anyway this is not the topic, if you wanna dispute the finer points of 22nd history go make a thread for it.
