I really really really need people to rate this map! The story goes something like this: Lord Gaebril has gone off to the crusades leaving only half his army to defend his castle while he is gone. In his greed (and because the hills surrounding the castle are full of gold)Duc Volpe mobilizes his massive army to destroy the castle and claim the surrounding lands for himself. Lord Gaebril's men have sworn that the castle will never fall while there is at least one man standing.
--------------------------------------------------
The map should be pretty hard (it took me a few tries to beat it) but I know that most people may be better/worse than me at defending castles so I would greatly appreciate feedback on this map so I can perfect the balance, terrain, ect.
Here's a few screenshots (sorry if they're small)
Ooooh new picture!
UPDATES ARE GOOD!
Some changes:
-Made the landscape less boring by adding some brooks and stones and swamps and trees and bushes and animals :-D
-Made the invasions bigger toward the middle years to break up the monotony (there are different troops too like macemen and stuff)
-Scripted some fires and a touch of plague to make the map more challenting
-Took out 80,000 gold! I also disabled a few things in the market.
p.s. I thought of putting in siege equipment but rejected the idea, if I get enough of a response for it though I'll add some to the invasions! Thanks for the ratings NAT and lollard, it's much better than it used to be (I hope).
