Hey guys,
quzze and I are planning to do a Stronghold 1 evening today (thursday) starting from around 19 o clock CEST.
In case you play/played stronghold and haven't noticed yet, there was a patch for being able to play in HD in november (also counts for stronghold: crusader), so the current version is 1.3
Patch link: http://www.strongholdhd.com/game.html#
Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stronghold_%282001_video_game%29
If you don't know the game I am willed to teach you everything needed + the game includes a short but very helpful tutorial.
Basic gameplay:
You start of with a castle keep, around that you build a grannary, farms, windmills, bakerys, stone pits, woodcutter huts, hovels, weapon manifactures, an armory, a barrack, a market, etc.
You have to keep your population happy by not forcing too high taxes nor giving them too little food. You can increase the popularity by building churches, taverns, giving more food or donating to the people instead of getting taxes from them. Also you can sell/buy resources/weapons/food. But you won't just stay peaceful.
Also you want to build great castles which are easy to defend and create a huge army able to kick in the enemys front door. For that you have multiple types of troops and engineers who are able to do multiple kinds of siege engines. A player looses once his lord dies
Unfortunately I couldn't find a decent video of a Stronghold 1 battle, but I found this one of Stronghold: Crusader, which is quite similar.
The biggest formats available are 4 players against 4 or 8 players fighting against each other but also in 1on1 it can be a great fun
As I am not allowed to post torrent links here please pmme on irc / per pm here for the link (600 mb, a lot of seeders)
Hopefully we'll see each other on the battlefield!
