300 spearmen slaughtered by a single knight!... WTF?
User Rating: 7.2 | Stronghold 2 PC
I liked Stronghold 2. Its a good game but not a Great game. There were bugs, and quirks that made wonder what the hell was going on. But still, its a good game just not much in the way of variety. All military units look like clones of each other, though giveing them names was a nice touch still. See one spear man you see them all. Speaking of which, I know knights are the bad asses of the medieval time but I sent a army 500 spear men and 200 archers against a small wooden fort defended by the lord and 5 knights plus some men at arms. HOW THE **** DOES ONE KNIGHT KILL HALF MY SPEARMEN?! ARGH!
Still, once I was allowed to build units otehr than the basic spear men and archers, I had fun with the military aspects. Though it might just be me I liked the path of peace more. Meh, personnel preference. But still that was a little iffy. Limited land and fast expansion dont mix well. Still if you like sims and the medieval era this is a worth while game to play.
