Manual description[edit | edit source]

In preparation, a section of Krewlod is let alone for thirty years, creating a place of wild and numerous beasts. As Kilgor the Barbarian, you must defeat the beasts, the Ancient Behemoth Razor Claw, and the other lords in order to have a chance to usurp the king's throne.

Backstory[edit | edit source]

Some may find the information in this section subjective or irrelevant.

  • This campaign is fully dedicated to Stronghold. There is only one town of another type, namely a Dungeon in the third scenario (Clan War), located in the underground layer.
  • Possibly the hardest scenario is the third, since there are four heroes which should be invincible.
  • Upgrade your heroes in the second scenario (Taming of the Wild). When a hero has already reached 20th level (highest possible in the second scenario), avoid using him/her in battles. Visit Altar of Sacrifice in order to get 20th level, if there's no opportunity to get it in a combat.
  • One of your heroes may get Diplomacy, because near your starting town in the third scenario there are many wandering Stronghold units.
  • Build Hall of Valhalla in every your Stronghold town (+1 Attack).
  • It's a very good idea to conquer the Dungeon in the third scenario, as you can get 4th and 5th level spells there.
