Stronghold Warlords Demo

Recommended Posts

Just wondering which of you guys have played the Stronghold Warlords Demo yet and what you thought of it? I've had it downloaded for a while but only just got a chance to have a look at it.

I have to say, Firefly have really impressed me with how they've managed to put everything together. There's a lot of depth to the game, and it's really stable, especially considering it's just a beta/demo version. They've combined all of the best parts from both Stronghold 3 and Crusader 2 and really built on things.

Got a few screenies attached for you all :classic_smile:

This is very interesting! I've been busy these days, and unfortunately it's going to be like this until Friday at least. It appears I missed it (or forgot) how can we get Stronghold Warlords Demo to try it? If it is available for everyone, maybe I should download it quick, maybe it won't be available for download in August, who knows. :D

From what I've seen on many videos and pictures, including your pictures right now, it's great, but I would like to see what would be the feeling of playing this game. :)

I don't think you can download it anymore now sadly, I think it was only available for a limited time. You could contact Firefly though and ask for a beta code, Nick gave me one a while back, though granted that's because I couldn't get the demo working on my new machine.

It's only a single mission to play in the demo, but by am I impressed with the work and background that's gone into it. I'm particularly interested in the concept of Peace Consulates, because it allows you (in theory) to peacefully annexe an estate instead of taking it by force. It also seems that while in previous versions of Stronghold you could just walk straight up to a neutral estate and claim it, you now need to fight off the Warlord and any army around the estate. I haven't tried using Peace Consulates yet because I'm still not quite sure how they work, but I might go back into the demo and try it again.

      Come one, come all! We have arrived to another milestone, as a new game's tough shell has been cracked open: Stronghold 2 has given its own Lord Editor! This version of the Legends Lord Editor has been adapted to SH2 and redesigned in its outlook. Alter the lords at your own leisure, while enjoying the generally darker atmosphere of SH2 with burgundy buttons and embellished parchment panels. Newfound additions to the editor are improvements in the design, as well as a lot

    • Stronghold Legends Screenshots

      Does anyone recognise these screenshots? I've been forwarded a link to a website by @ Average tahiti enjoyer initially speculating this was a mod, but I can find lots of different examples of the exact same screenshot being used on other websites so I'm beginning to wonder if it was released by Firefly instead, possibly as some kind of demo. I couldn't find any download links, at least on that website. I like this build and think it would be good to have as a mod of some kind.

    • How about Stronghold Crusader Definitive Edition?

      Hey, guys, check this out?   Age of Empires Definitive Edition   It looks really cool to me, and in the matter of fact - far batter than many of those HD editions of many games, even Stronghold Crusader. I mean, this isn't only about enabling higher resolutions, and making the game to look better on wide screens and laptops, this is, as they say, almost all new or remastered textures, and improved mechanics. At least so they say.   So then I though, it would be awesome to have a Definitive Ed
