After Montgisard, Baldwin IV orders a major fortress built at Jacob's Ford to control a strategic crossing of the Jordan. Templars and labourers race to complete the defences while the position threatens Saladin's communications between Syria and Egypt.

Saladin attacks before the castle is finished. The Brotherhood must defend an incomplete stronghold whose strength has been exaggerated by politics and whose survival depends on relief arriving in time.
