Sir Tman, I only found a .png file containing a minimap in the zipped download. The minimap looked good but there is no .map file for stronghold. Update your download file to contain the game map and I shall review it if I have time.

I loved this game, I really did. I liked how there wasn't a timer on how long you had to get all the things to gether. I also liked how they had the better things, but you had the numbers. The instructions were a bit shotty at first, but I worked around em. And the design was great.
Great job for your first map!

Playability was ok, but playing this map in very hard with the high amount of archers to defend the castle and the amount of attacking forces, the archers would sometimes kill the deers...
Balance could improve: you can only build four iron mines, as there is a signpost near by. In very hard, you must acquire 60 iron, 90 armours and 60 swords... That is a total of 210 Iron.... It's very long, getting it 4 by 4...
The invasions are pretty good.
Creativity ok. Map is of a simple and efficient design.
Story? Hum... No need here... Play it and ya'll see...
I liked to play this map that is very fun on very hard.... Except for the iron... I had to wait so much that I ended with a huge amount of gold. (That gave me a huge score....)
Worth being played.
(After re-playing it, I found out it is actually possible to build five iron mines, but you must build stairs in order to access one of the mines...)
