New Map: The End of The Pig

[Micha! 27]

Hey, so my next map will be an invasion map again. I remember this one castle of "The Pig" which you needed to siege on stronghold. It was very hard and took me a while to be sucessful. The goal of this map is to kill the enemy Lord The Pig - Duc Truffle. You will loose if you have to less troops left.

 

I built the basic map in fast creating way so it's not natural looking yet.

Right now I have the problem that an AI seems to control your units if you don't stop them doing so. Also It isn't possible to dig the water so I decided to block the left and right water area for now. Another problem is that the defending Lord isn't using the fire archers to set the pitch on fire so I needed to place oil throwers, mangols are not used neither.

This is a nice idea :D

I remember the Pig's castle from Stronghold 1. It was quite hard, and I needed several attempts. Felt great, when my troops were finally on his keep.

 

 

About the invading (player) troops beeing controlled by the AI: did you check that they are correctly allocated to Player 1? Also, maybe you need to set the territory where they spawn to Player 1. Just an idea.

Indeed, I have recently won those two missions from the campaign. :) Each time it was exciting!

 

I also like how you added the moat in front of the castle.

Hey, I just saw a video on youtube where Micha! is playing Sergiu HD on the Pigs Castle.

It is also a promotional give away for Stronghold Kingdoms - that is a nice idea.

 

Cool stuff, Micha! :cool:

This is really nice to see this castle in action. :)

 

By the way, Micha, although you didn't make it to win this game, you did leave a castle burned to the ground behind you, and that has to be counted as well! :cool: Micha barbarian! :D

Hey, thank you. This was just a fast map change to play against each other. Also I didn't played to win, it was more a show of. I doubt I wont release the map as a multiplayer map.
