Happy New Year!
Here, we find ourselves again in that period of the year. In the battle with Time, we never win, so all we can do, is enjoy every second of our life. Some of you may have had a great time in 2012, while for some, it may have been a though year. Either way, we should always enjoy our time as much as we can and smile where possible. Learn from the past, live in the present, and think in the future!
On behalf of the Stronghold Heaven Staff I would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year, and may 2013 bring everyone the best moments of your life yet.
Stronghold HD and Stronghold Crusader HD released!
Stronghold HD and Stronghold Crusader HD are now available for purchase at GOG, Amazon, GetGames and DotEmu and to celebrate Firefly Studios has launched two new websites showcasing the titles. If you already have the original games, you can download the HD patches for free!
The new websites showcase the games’ HD battlefield view, which allows players to zoom out and play in real-time with the entire map on one screen. Players can advance on the castle gates while flanking the enemy from behind, feign retreat and lead their foes into a deadly trap or just sit back and watch the destruction unfold.
More information on the games can be found at
www.strongholdhd.com and www.strongholdcrusaderhd.com.

Firefly Studios to Launch Space Colony HD in November
Firefly Studios, creators of the Stronghold series, has just announced that sci-fi strategy sim Space Colony is being re-released next month in the form of Space Colony HD.
Described by PC Gamer as “A fun, refreshingly light-hearted and deviously challenging sim”, Space Colony was released in 2003 to a warm critical reception from publications such as GameSpy, GamePro and G4 TV.
Space Colony HD has players build a base on different planets throughout the galaxy, defending it from hostile alien threats while also keeping their ragtag crew of colonists alive and content. Your colourful crew includes the amicable Venus Jones, Scandinavian biker Stig Svensson, cybernetics expert Mr. Zhang and even former chicken farmer Billy-Bob Perkins. Each character has a unique personality with specific skills and needs, as well as different interactions. While keeping the crew happy is important, players must also keep them alive, maintaining oxygen levels, work productivity and defending against hostile alien threats.
Space Colony is not your run of the mill life simulator. The game features a wealth of different structures, weapons, aliens and real-time strategy mechanics befitting of a base builder. Establishing mining operations, colonist facilities and perimeter defences is up to the player, as is deciding which planets to colonise. As a throwback to the Stronghold games, players can choose to take a “Military” or “Civilian” path through the game, battling indigenous life or building intergalactic golf courses instead.
Space Colony HD updates the original strategy sim with high definition graphics and a greater field of view, often allowing players to see attacks on their base and points of interest at a glance, without the need to scroll around the map. The game has been remastered to support resolutions up to 2560×1600, up from the previous cap of 1280×1024.
Space Colony HD is set for digital release on GOG, Amazon, GetGames and other notable online retailers on 8th November 2012.

Stronghold Crusader HD shifts from Europe to Middle East with missions from the First, Second and Third Crusades.

Stronghold Kingdoms Goes Gold
Stronghold Kingdoms Goes Gold
London, UK – October, 2012 – Firefly Studios, creators of the second most popular free to play game on Steam, has just announced that their popular Castle MMO has now gone gold, with a release date set for Wednesday 17th October 2012.
Firefly Studios has just announced that Stronghold Kingdoms will be leaving its open beta phase next week. Following on from the addition of Quests, the new Coat of Arms Designer, graphical updates and a milestone of one million registered players, Stronghold Kingdoms will be released with a new update that adds all-new sound effects to the game.
New sound effects have been one of the most frequently requested features for Stronghold Kingdoms, adding a layer of immersion to the game that appeals to players new and old. Battles now rumble with the marching and clash of armies, scouts can be heard galloping to their next target and traders carting off to the parish capital with their goods. There are also a number of sounds added to the user interface, providing better feedback for players.
Nick Tannahill, Marketing Manager at Firefly Studios, had the following to say concerning the new release. “In the current free to play climate it’s not uncommon for games to stay in beta for more than a year before seeing release. In the case of Kingdoms we wanted to wait until the game felt complete before leaving beta and with the new sound effects we feel we’ve achieved that. This is really a celebration of all the tweaking, balancing and feature building the team has been doing over the past year and a half. We feel it’s a milestone worthy of a full release.”
The release of Stronghold Kingdoms makes no change to the free to play model on which the game was built. Players will still be able to download and play Kingdoms for free at www.strongholdkingdoms.com.
More information on Stronghold Kingdoms and Firefly Studios can be found at www.strongholdkingdoms.com and www.fireflyworlds.com. Kingdoms can be found on Facebook at www.facebook.com/StrongholdKingdoms and on Twitter @SHKingdoms.
Stonghold Crusader II Announced!
London, UK � 30th August 2012 Strategy fans around the world rejoice, Firefly Studios has just announced the next entry in the legendary Stronghold series with Stronghold Crusader 2. Set to march across digital battlefields in late 2013, Stronghold Crusader 2 will take legions of Stronghold fans back to the ancient deserts of the Middle East for more real-time mayhem between brutal knights and fiery Caliphs.
Firefly Studios will raise the stakes and build upon the trademark gameplay of the original Stronghold Crusader with stunning new visuals, a sleek new battle interface, and engine enhancements including effects, animations, and real-time physics. Stronghold Crusader 2 promises epic fast-paced skirmishes against fiendish AI opponents will breakout on all-new maps with new unit classes, new traps, and new castle designs unlike any seen before in the series.
�Stronghold Crusader is our favorite game, it�s our fans� favorite game and it�s the game we have been waiting to put into production for several long years now. Now Firefly Studios finally has that chance and we will not disappoint,� said Simon Bradbury, CEO of Firefly Studios and Designer of Stronghold Crusader 2.
Over the past decade, the Stronghold series has sold over 6 million games under the Stronghold, Stronghold Crusader, and Stronghold Kingdom banners.
�The original Stronghold Crusader has been a huge success since its launch ten years ago, selling over 2.5 million units and still going strong and we get constant requests for more,� said Eric Ouellette, President of Firefly Studios.
Stronghold Crusader 2 is in development and funded by Firefly Studios themselves and the team will seek additional funds through game-focused crowd sourcing service Gambitious. Additional funding provided by Stronghold and Firefly Studios fans will go towards polish, additional content, and self-publishing the game.
�Crowd funding is a revolution for small, independent developers like ourselves and through Gambitious we hope to supplement the development of Stronghold Crusader 2,� said Eric. �With the support of our fans we can release Stronghold Crusader 2 when it�s absolutely perfect and push the game to new heights.�
More news and information on Stronghold Crusader 2 can be found at StrongholdCrusader2.com and fans can help fund the latest crusade at Gambitious.com. Follow @SHCrusaderTwo and @gambitiousinc for updates on the crowd funding campaign and updates on pre-production of Stronghold Crusader 2.
And the winner is…
Games Group I: 2 Judges, 3 possible Stronghold games, 4 months given to finish the work, 10 competitors and 10 scenarios. One winner.
Lords and Ladies, winner of Games Group I, which is part of the 2nd Stronghold Heaven Fantasy Contest, is… Duc Volpe a.k.a Leto with his incredible fantasy scenario DAO – Ostagar!
There was a real challenge to pick a single winner since most maps had an impressive quality, each bringing out different features and highly original ideas. We, the judges, have also decided upon the 2nd and 3rd place, even though only the 1st place will get the prize.
Being quite close to winning, WL_D Arthus and his The Devil’s Elbow gets 2nd place!
The honorable 3rd place goes to La LUmiere a.k.a. Lord Falkord and his scenario callled The City of Falkions
Reviews to each scenario will follow in the near future as the maps get published on the Stronghold Heaven Downloads section. Make sure you congratulate the winner and comment on the competition thread!
The 2nd SHH Fantasy Contest – Winners Decided.
It’s been a while since the Contest has closed its doors. Back then, one of the two possible winners have already been announced – Sir_Vet for Games Group II (SH2/SHL)
Games Group I was left with 10 entries and a long battle to be taken by the judges, in order to figure out what is the best out of all the scenarios. We had a few issues to go over, which was the cause of all the delay. Unfortunately one of the issues consisted in a judge – Peter2008 – who turned inactive and couldn’t judge anymore.
The decision, winner of Games Group I, was taken by DeSteff2222 and I (Lord_of_Hell). It was a tremendous task: Most of the entries had an impressive quality while others had shined through different gameplay aspects. To remind everyone, the competitors were as follows: PaultheDubious (SH-K), Korsfarer Mogens, LordBlackadder, Duc Volpe (SH-K), Charles of Tours (SH-K), Fayez2010, Sir_Vet, WL_D Arthus, La LUmiere (SFH) and Heroesflorian
The judges decision regarding who is the winner will be made public on 8th August, over few days! Untill then, make sure you keep an eye on Stronghold Heaven and the forums!

Stronghold Heaven – Week Map 12
It’s been a while since we last spotlighted a recently created user scenario and what better way to start the month than by reviving the Week Map news?
And not any map, but here’s a special one. LegionHero is the author of Week Map 12 called Rise of an Empire – chapter 1. The gameplay starts in a small-scaled battleground style, thrilling and forcing the player to test his fighting skills right from the very start. The economical part is also highly entertaining, as the beautiful surroundings of the map doesn’t let anyone get bored.
All in all it’s a great map, more than worth playing.
Be sure to Download & Play It and check the Week Maps thread.
The 2nd Stronghold Heaven Fantasy Contest has closed.
The time has come for the Stronghold Heaven mapmaking contest to close its doors as the 1st April deadline has been reached. However it is not the end, but only the beginning! During three exciting months plenty people have come to compete with each other in creating the best Fantasy Scenario. For the competitors it has been a quite challenging event as most of them pushed their mapmaking skills above their usual level, improving in the same time. Yet for the judges the challenge has only recently started. In the next week or two, each map will go through a very close analysis in order to decide which of them truly deserves to win.
On behalf of the Stronghold Heaven Staff I�d like to thank to all the people who showed interest in the competition, even if some of them could not find the time to finish the scenario in time. The competitors are as follows:
PaultheDubious (SH-K), Korsfarer Mogens, LordBlackadder, Duc Volpe (SH-K), Charles of Tours (SH-K*), Fayez2010, Sir_Vet, WL_D Arthus, La LUmiere (SFH**) and Heroesflorian
� and they are all competing in Games Group I. Only one user has also sent an entry for Games Group II making him already a straight winner! The scenario has been analyzed by GGII Judges (Doomsword & Stratego) and Sir_Vet is now declared a winner for Games Group II!
Games Group I (SH1/SHC/SHC:E) is judged by Peter2008, DeSteff2222 and I (Lord_of_Hell) . Analyzing and comparing all the maps will certainly be a hard task but the winner will be more than worth of winning.
The competitors are now free to submit their scenarios to the Stronghold Heaven Downloads Section. After the other winner will have been announced, each scenario that was a part of the contest will receive a review by one of the judges. The winner map will get 3 reviews, each written by one of the 3 judges.
I hope everyone had fun in the competition and rest assured it’s just one of the many that will follow!
Small Update: La LUmiere and Heroesflorian have recently submitted 2 delayed entries. We decided to accept them since they’ve contacted us before 1st April asking for a few more hours. They are the last submissions we accept though.
*SH-K stands for Stronghold-Knights fansite.
**SFH stands for Stronghold French Heaven fansite.

Stronghold Heaven – Week Map 10
After another short break of Week Maps we’re back on track and starting next week we are also going to spotlight some great old maps that did’t get the attention they deserved.
This week’s map is Wadi l-Kbir by Korsfarer Mogens and what makes it original is the tricky gameplay that the author has created within a short and simple scripting. The design features a poor desert with few rocky formations. It is definitely a special and fun scenario which is worth playing through.
Make sure you download, play it then comment Week map news in this thread.

Stronghold Heaven Contest – Update!
One month has passed by since the competition has started. So far most of the people interested have announced their participation already and they are now working on the maps. Among our users, people from other gaming fansites like Stronghold-Knights and Stronghold French Heaven joined the fun to compete against some of the well-known and very good mapmakers from SHH: AZ ViTrAzhAs, Warlord_Designs (Arthus) and TheDragonheart. Besides them, Stronghold Heaven comes with several more good mapmakers. The competitors from Stronghold-Knights are Aleks S I, Charles of Tours, Duc Volpe, PaultheDubious while the competitors from Stronghold French Heaven are La LUmiere, Gryfon and Sir Killer CDL.
This is an update with people who have announced their participation so far but of course one can just submit an entry without announcing. On another hand, there is still plenty of time for mapmaking for anyone interested in the contest – entries are closing on 1st April 2012. The custom forum title that we are giving the winners might not seem much but competitors should keep in mind that only one active user has currently a custom title and that is WLD_Arthus. Winning the contest and having an account title would automatically gain anyone respect and a more known nickname giving his achievement. There is a chance for everybody but most of all the feeling and fun of designing a contest map is different than creating a “normal” scenario.
With that said, we wish everyone to have fun designing and good luck competing! The Fantasy Scenario Competition can be found here.

Stronghold Week Maps, YouTube videos and Competitions are all new activities in the recent times. Now Stronghold Heaven prepares for a new periodical project which will have the premiere in a couple of days. Stay ready for interesting info and be sure to check SHH periodically!
Fans Rewarded for Lego SH:K Stop Motion Animation
At the end of 2010 Firefly asked fans to send in Stronghold or Christmas themed images for the chance to win in-game prizes. Winners were revealed daily in an advent calendar style competition. In 2011 Firefly reached out to these same people, asking them to send in any and all fan-made Stronghold videos.
All developers have the occasional fan video sent in, but nothing makes a one smile quite like seeing their game recreated in glorious Lego stop motion. Over Christmas a few players, who are now officially Firefly’s biggest fans, sent such a video. They have been contacted for a reward and had their work immortalized on the Firefly website.
