Description

1096. The Pope has called for a crusade to free Jerusalem, and half the warriors of Europe have responded.

Among them is the Norman, Count Bohemund, one-time enemy of Byzantium.

In company with his warrior nephew, Tancred of Lecce, Bohemund must once more cross the Adriatic to the lands of the Byzantine Empire.

His first task, pushing back the infidel Turks, calls for an uneasy alliance with old enemy Emperor Alexius.

But can the Crusaders trust the wily Emperor?With old tensions arising, and the violent battles of the People's Crusade bringing destruction upon middle Europe, the strength of this reluctant truce, and the de Hauteville dynasty itself, is truly put to the test.

Bohemund is faced once again with the opportunity to gain power, land and riches for himself, but do the risks of doing so outweigh the rewards?

The Crusaders must contend with sieges, open battles, hunger and want on their journey to mighty Antioch, where they face the stiffest test of their mettle.
