One battle to rule them all... the last of the crusade comes face to face with the last of the arabic forces,now they come face to face in combat. Arabs to the north, crusaders tot he south, build up your grand fort and work together with your allie to accomplish victory! Use the old ruins as a resting place for your troops, be wary near supplies like stone and iron as your enemy might be planning to wipe out those resources, wage battles in the hot desert heat and siege down your enemys castle then finish of this lord! There can only be one winner....make that be you!

Note: I put this map as unbalenced because the stone and iron resources are nearer to one side than the other but this doesent really affect playabillty.
Additional Comments:
This map is a refreshing change to the straight up EXACTLY even event maps. If your player 1, you control the ruins in the middle. And it is ruins (some wall left) that are too far from castle to build. So a defendable area, that cant be modified and strengthened to impossible proportions. Im working on a mountain range map, and this one is a nice example of how good these maps can look finished!
