Advantages: Great castle simulator, Nice depth, Details

Disadvantages: Poor graphics, Slightly clumsy interface

A standalone expantion pack to the european seted Stronghold.

This game is one of the best castle simulator I have ever palyed. It simulates very well all the problems of managing a castle at middle ages. You have available all kinds of traps you can imagine from pitch that your archers can set on fire to wooden stakes. You also have the usual buildings to create weapons, house for your inhabitants, etc. There are so many things that I can describe them all, has this simulates every aspects of castle building and management. I really can't think in anything they had missed.

The game does have a big weak point though. The graphics are very ugly and you can see the pixels on them. Good old warcraft 2 had better graphics.

A must to all medieval/fantasy fans, but if you are looking for a good looking RTS you better go somewhere else.
