Stronghold 3 Cheat Codes: ------------ Submitted by: David K. Defensive Tips: --------------- Here are some defensive tips that will help when enemies start attacking you. * Place archers on towers, as this will help give them extra range when enemies get close to your castle. * Utilize traps to your advantage. Use pitch ditches at the right time to devastate your opposition. You can also use traps to dwindle the numbers of enemy archers before they make it to your walls. * Make sure to have some kind of defenses on all sides, so the enemy doesn't surprise you when attacking your weak sides. * Place braziers on wall, so you can use flaming arrows, which do more damage. Also, section off parts of your castle and line the walls with archers; this will make sure that enemies coming from that direction are swarmed with arrows. * Don't forget about bears and wolves, as they can wreak havoc on your town if you don't know they're coming. * Strategically place walls so that attackers that aren't backed up by siege equipment are tricked into traps and swarmed by ranged attacks. Gameinfo: --------- This is the third chapter in FireFly Studios's hit castle-sim and siege-warfare RTS franchise. In Stronghold 3, castle building -- the foundation of the franchise -- has been significantly improved, providing players with unprecedented control over the placement of buildings. This allows them to create their kingdom with a precision that compliments their carefully planned tactics. What's more, village planning is no longer confined to a grid system; players can now create castle walls that flow gracefully ... until theyâre blasted to pieces by the enemy. On top of Stronghold 3's innovations in castle construction, night sieges have been introduced, opening up a range of new possibilities and tactics. Players will have to hunt enemy soldiers cloaked in darkness and carefully choose their weapons in order to survive the dark hours. A state-of-the-art graphics engine lets you view your buildings in stunning detail. From villagers going about their everyday lives, to soldiers preparing for war or people suffering from the plague, players are given a highly-detailed snapshot of medieval life. Additionally, a refined physics engine with procedural destruction adds intensity and drama to siege warfare as you watch your castle -- or that of your enemy -- crumble into ruin before your eyes. Features: --------- * Improved building system allowing unprecedented levels of realism and intricacy in castle and village design. * Realistic physics and cutting-edge graphics bring siege warfare to life in stunning detail. * Story-driven gameplay engages players across two campaigns: combat or economic. * Dramatic nighttime sieges add a new dimension to the Stronghold franchise. * Besiege other players' castles or defend your own in a range of action-packed online multiplayer modes. * Play through accurately re-created sieges from the pages of history.
