pick up stronghold de and go through the campaign. It' super comfy. Crusaders is more multiplayer/skirmish focused

Why the FUCK would you spend money again on a downgrade of the same game? Remakeniggers are retarded.

it pared down from 2 mechanically to focus on the RTS elements plus the new fantasy units, with no castle sim mode

Okay fags episode 11 stronghold HD combat capaign "snake hunt"
Whats the trick with this one? I keep getting raped by the wolfs swordmen half way thru the mission, i can get about 16 archers going but they get fucked by the macemen and when i make macemen its still not quite enought to stem the tide of sword guys.... more wood walls?? Sell stone?? Wtf am i doing wrong

Quickly encase yourself with wooden walls at first, then build a stone gate, and finally build archers. Attacking enemy AI tends to favor attacking weaker sides of your walls, so remember to make the walls away from the enemy thicker so you can funnel them into your "weaker" front gate where most of your archers are at. At around halfway through the mission you should already have a stone gate and a tower packed with archers ready to deal with swordsmen. You could do the gay bread empire strategy to make things easier.

You'd generally want to be at max 100 popularity at any time to maximise peasant production.
