Due to the lack of both time and interest in my French Megacampaign AAR, I have decided to abandon it in its current form, but I will try to undertake a new megacampaign, but leaving coice of the country to a poll. Here are the different choices proposed; please note that this will trigger a megacampaign that will stretch from Crusader Kings to Hearts of Iron, and that would be also shown on the Alternate History Board.

-Rebooting my French megacampaign, with a new game starting in France in the 1066 campaign.
-Georgia in 1066. One goal: survive, surrounded by the Turks and the Cumans.
-An Irish Duchy by 1066: unite and prosper.
-Starting in 1066, the history of the Norman Kings of Sicily, starting with the Duchy of Apulia
-Starting in 1187, the Kingdom of Portugal under its second king, Sancho.
-Starting in 1187, the Principality of Antioch, that got to survive and strive.
-Starting in 1337, the ailing Byzantine Empire trying to resist the Turks and its inner dissent.

Thanks for your vote. This poll will be closed next Tuesday.
 
Would you consider using the play as Muslims/Pagans mod and playing an Iberian Taifa in Megacampaign? Perhaps Toledo?

Otherwise, do Antioch (go Orthodox- you can get Cilicia that way), Munster in 1066, or Georgia.
 
Ireland. Unite, fend off the Norse and English, and get in shape to start colonizing in EU3.
 
I agree, do Antioch.

They're not done all that often and would be very interesting. Might be especially interesting if you do an Antioch that somehow survives w/o a Kingdom of Jerusalem to the south, at least for a time. Meddle in the affairs of Lesser Armenia and Georgia. Evade Byzantine politics... and Muslim attacks.
 
Norman Sicily with a Reggio (di Calabria (and also Messina)) start;); if I'm not mistaken Roger Bosso was the count in 1066 and the first king of Sicily count Roger II was his son.

Alternatively France or Portugal are also fine.
 
Antioch, just because it hasn't been seen as often as the other ones.
