Cumans!

[cpteveros]

Ok, so lets say I conquer the pecheneg lands as kingdom of Germany. I create a ducal title and give it to the second son of the duke of Carinthia. I load up as him. I declare independence down the road. My problem is this: How do I defeat the Cuman hordes around the Azov area, as they are huge. I would like to do it soon, seeing as Pyreslavl and every other russian prince and his mum want a piece.

Maybe wait with the independence, and let your liege help you??

Otherwise you have to be smart about it. Be patient and wait until the cumans are in another conflict somewhere else. It should not be while they are gobbling up yet another minor power, but when they are in a bloody and lengthy conflict. One that he hopefully can't just wrap up and turn his mighty attention squarely on you.
