After some time with this map, I thought I would submit it to see what my fellow Stronghold players thought. I designed this map around somewhere that holds special significance for me- the Altai Mountains of Central Asia.
Story:
"Monkhbat, third son of an Altay chief, was always a fat and greedy man. Feasting excessively on bowls on milk and plates of meat, he was often the subject of jokes from his brothers for his laziness. He soon became so obese that he could not mount a horse, and barely fit into his oversize robes.
Worried that Monkhbat would never be able to handle the responsibility of a clan chieftain, his father decided to put his idle son to work. He sent Monkhbat deep into the Altai Mountains, away from the comfort of his home and his mothers cooking, to be tasked with building an outpost for messengers and rural traders.
Monkhbat, red faced and puffing from his journey through the forests, finally stopped at a secluded sight near a deep blue lake. Here he decided to mark the site for his settlement."
I hope you enjoy. It is my first map, and I would be grateful for any reviews or comments.
Nice map , scenario is easy ( 20 monthes left at VH level ) . For my taste , it is a good job for a " normal " map .

Thanks so much to Bourgogne and Sir Realist for your wonderful and helpful reviews! I'm sorry for such a late response but my Windows recently died on me and I had to get my hands on a new computer. I'm very glad you enjoyed the map and I really appreciate the feedback you both gave. I will definitely keep it in mind for any future projects.
Cheers! :)

A nice and eventful map, always keeping you busy to react upon those bad events such as fire, plagues, cow desease etc. Needed two attempts to figure out how to start and to proceed successfully ... it is well playable on all three difficulty levels, keep up the good work!
