You have been tasked with harvesting the resources of this land for your lord, Baron von Leeson. He has ordered you to establish a small fortification and send the bounty to him in Mauldin. His rival, Duke Philippe du Francois of Normandy also has ambitions for this pristine wilderness. You must be prepared for his efforts to thwart you. You have twenty game years to complete your task. Legend has it that an evil witch cast a spell on the stones of the wood and anyone who digs them from the ground will feel her curse. The more simple-minded folk say she can still be seen from time to time, flying on her broom cackling wildly, but who believes such nonsense.
Victory Objectives:
1500 Gold
150 Fruit
20 Sword
20 Metal Armor
Complete the Castle
***Player Notes***Very Important***
This scenario allows you the freedom to place your starting keep in one of six locations, each location with its particular advantages. Please note that this map will be labeled EASY. It is designed more for entry to intermediate level players of Stronghold. This is a break from my traditional “epic” invasions that can be quite challenging and take several hours to play. This map can be won in 60 – 90 minutes. For the more experienced players, I would suggest playing the map on hard or very hard setting.
As always, I hope you have as much fun playing this scenario as I have had creating it. I look forward to your comments.
