Jihad?

[riskbreaker86]

This is probably a basic question, but I can't find any references to it, how do you call Jihad?

[Gustavus Adolphus]

If you are a muslim kingdom, go to the your piety and it has the option of calling a jihad.

[Gabo]

What are the pros and cons of calling a Yihad?

[Gustavus Adolphus]

Well, it makes your kingdom power drop, but it also attacks people that arn't your religion.

[Elvain]

in every mosque in certain province small jihad (rebel) armies keep attacking invading army so it have no rest and when your marshal reaches there finaly, he meets exhausted army.
And con is that your kingdom power drops

Nasty trick:
Wait until dusk and then declare Jihad.
Either the enemy keeps fighting jihad warriors and can't place tents, or he sets up a camp and suffers heavy losses from the Jihad warriors. So either he is killed by Jihad warriors or his soldiers will suffer the enemy-territory-morale-penalty, the night-penalty and the night-march-penalty. Or in other words: He's easy prey. :viking:
This works exceptionally great in my modded copy (GoG-1.6 under development) and should work rather good in the normal version of KoH.

excellent info/tips, thanks a lot. With my Ottoman empire probing into France and Hungary this should be useful.

but I think that province must be converted to islam first. Because jihad armies come from mosques which are only in muslim provinces.
