Summary

Hello Everyone, Yes it is not the crusades and I do apologize. You may be confused because I state in this that it is a Patreon Exclusive. Well the Reason for that is because I have pneumonia this week and have barely been able to speak. So no recording for me but my patrons were kind enough to let me use one of the many exclusives there. I am sorry about the delay. In the meantime I am doing a lot of writing and hope to share with those of you that want to join on patreon several weeks worth of podcasts next week. This is your all's freebie on sieges this week Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
