I'm glad that you all think it's better. :)

"I've been thinking... " Started the Duke. "With my head on every coin, and so many people knowing me, no matter how disguised I am, I will only be able to take you all so far without giving the game away. If you can do this for me, I will grant you all 120 acres of land each."

That is too similar to the Global Moderator colour. I have found a grey colour though, let me know if it's any better.

Interesting. I did not know that. :)

"I'm not quite sure where to begin..." started the Duke in a whisper. "I was planning a minor banquet, and while it was ongoing, Outlaws started ransacking the village from the nearby Forest. I.. I started to try and get the men ready, but before long it was too late and the outlaws were too strong in number. Worse still, there is a traitor in the Castle. I do not know how, but somehow the gates were left open for them to come rushing in without a fight. What knights I could gather quick enough managed to escape, but we were lost in the woods yesterday as a result. Most my belongings were left in that Castle, and possibly either now stolen or destroyed." The Duke stops abruptly after hearing the rustling of bushes nearby. He starts again, his voice even quieter. "We must be careful. The enemy has many spies now and we do not know who may be listening."

Thank you! :) http://www.stronghold-nation.com/article/164-creating-freebuild-economic-missions

Welcome! :) How about the fantasy troops? And the ability to choose between the three different factions. That's definitely my favourite part of Legends. ;) How long on average does one map take you?

Not at all a problem, a category (or rather two) have been created for them :) EDIT: As promised: http://www.stronghold-nation.com/article/163-custom-scenarios-and-freebuilds-in-crusader-extreme

I agree that the members group colour could be brighter, however it's very hard to find one which will match the downloads section, main site & the forums effectively - I've been looking for some time now. Believe me when I say I am trying to find one, it's just hiding itself very well from us. :) If you have any ideas, please let us know, every colour is closer to finding a better one :)

"Thank you kind brother Goodman" remarked the Duke, whilst disembarking from his horse, Everard. "Tell me, do you have some place we can talk more privately? I have some urgent information to tell you which is both alarming and disturbing."

Pinned.

Thinking that he has now come across hostile knights, the Duke begins to fear for the worst. He slowly reaches for his own sword and some guards nearby also do the same in case of a rapid aggressive attack. "That depends on your own hostile behaviour. Very well.. I am Duke Christopher XII of Riverbourne Castle. And who sir, are you?"

Welcome to StrongholdNation @Isaiah! Thank you for providing this tutorial, you're very gifted at writing and was very clear to understand. Perhaps it would gain even more attention if I posted it on the main site under your name, in addition to being here? If you would allow me to of course, it's your tutorial :) I've also promoted you to a standard member now, so no more new-member restrictions apply. Welcome!

Attachments aren't allowed in the gaming events forum because there's not really any need for users to upload them there, it's mainly for scheduling events for the games. I've moved your thread to site questions/support & renamed it as this thread is not really about SHC2, more of an issue with attachments & the site.

As we agreed, your topic has been moved. :)

While the knights peacefully sleep, a mounted figure appears on the horizon, slowly getting closer and closer with a small cluster of other mounted figures nearby. Before long, they are fairly near and in close view of the knights, who seem to feel threated by their presence. Fearing for a bloodbath after their tense movements, Duke Christopher XII speaks. "Good e'en, how farest thou? My party have ventured out from Riverbourne Castle, in order to reach some aiding knights - but have been lost in the process in the nearby woods. May we stay here for the night?"

New members are restricted from posting attachments as a way to stop malicious intentions on the forum & any spam (several other restrictions also apply). I've promoted you now, you can make use of that functionality - welcome! :)

We have added a new forum behind the "Competitions" forum, for the joint project between and [user]lord vetka]. This forum is dedicated to the Crusader 2 Multiplayer: Siege-That! tournament(s) which will contain several maps and have different levels of difficulty. For more information exactly what the contest contains, you can refer to the discussion thread below: http://forums.stronghold-nation.com/topic/443-contest-idea-multiplayer-siege-that/ To help folks directly get to the new Crusader 2 Multiplayer: Siege-That! forum, here is a direct link to it: http://forums.stronghold-nation.com/forum/65-crusader-2-multiplayer-siegethat/. You can also access this via Competitions -> Crusader 2 Multiplayer: Siege-That! This forum will have all the official topics posted in, and all in one place so that it's easier to find as well as serves as an official record.

Hi @Nomekopadam, Welcome to StrongholdNation. I've found this link, please let us know if it helps you at all: http://stronghold.heavengames.com/cgi-bin/forum/display.cgi?action=ct&f=1,485,30,all

Thanks Nigel :) There is a bit of a back-log of files still, though. There are a total of 8 files still in the queue, I'm working on three SH1 Invasion maps but after the unexpected server move yesterday it had to be abandoned. They should be approved today at some point. EDIT: Make that 9 xD

Agreed - we will give some time for the contest to start, however, we won't wait forever. I am currently discussing ideas about how to implement better ways to judge the contest and for users to submit entries so that people cannot view entries by other members before the contest is closed .etc. The contest is still on, however there are a couple of things to be done before we start, for example, an in-depth article on scripting which users could go to for a guide on how to create maps. We do have an editor overview, but that is just an overview and not in any detail about things that do/don't work. We're both currently hard at work on other games, making maps and articles, and as far as I know it's still on-hold. @Lord Vetka can you confirm this?

This gallery has been up for some time now, but here is a gallery album full of screenshots that show more about the map you would be using. http://www.stronghold-nation.com/gallery/album/33-arden-contest/

Yes you have made a topic about this before. Merging.

I'd be more than happy to referee if you're looking for someone. Sometimes being able to just sit back and watch is an easy way to learn more tricks, and means you don't have to worry about getting killed yourself.

Currently, there is only the option to add articles for games. However, you can send me some through the PM sometime and, I'll see if I think it's worth somehow figuring out how to create a category for them.
