You could even split off which resources he can produce and which the AI has to produce for him, you could even adjust the trade parameters for the AI in how often it requests resources and how generous it is with the help of the Unofficial Crusader Patch. I love to see map creation processes well structured and organized :DĮdit: just read about the Idea! And it sounds great :D it would mean, the player lives in this symbiotic relationship with the AI. I would also like to know more about the balance for the scenario you are making, what do you have in mind there? I would want to know, if there could be any elevations in the terrain? You have layed out jerusalem, and it looks well planned out, but does the surrounding terrain fit the actual environment?

I'll have a look and see if I can think of any other good Castles In terms of other castles, I know it's not exactly in the same area but have you thought about maybe Vatican City? This could be a really dramatic battle, staged in the early days of the Crusades or the Papacy for example. To make it even cooler, we could maybe re-skin a few units as well, and then I (or someone else if they wanted) could package it all together into an installer so people can get all this stuff in one file. Then there's Jerusalem as well, where you could have to protect the city and keep the Holy Grail under Templar control or something. We could even use some of the various 'secret passage' tricks to create secret ways in/out of the city as it actually was. Maybe there could be a small island on the far-left of the map representing Nicosia or something, and you could have to try and protect shipping or supplies, which you need in order to complete the castle, and which you can only get through that certain channel. Where you could go around some of the places the Knights Templar were active, and re-create real history with them. Or, here's a cool idea too, maybe it could become a 'Knights Templar' trail. We could expand it to fantasy castles, legendary castles, rebuilding cities. If it works, it doesn't even need to be confined to purely historic castles, either.
