Overview
Learn everything to be a very good Stronghold Crusader 2 Player
Startup:
First thing:
many players say you need all types of food or you have to get many iron or stone so you get gold i tell you BULLS…!
i make more money than them! by just taxes!
I played now so many games 1v1 2v2 ffa and 2v1 or even 3v1 and i win!
HOW? you ask hmm i tell you!
Economy:
to my bouild order:
i only have bread as food becouse you can produce it very fast and much so i place my storage near the greenland and my granary near the storage but ther were i have space for bakerys you will see in the picture.
key buildings are about 6 farms 4 mills and then as many bakerys that i produce food that i can put it on 4x and have 12 free workers something like 80-88 overall space thing here is the more then better.
if you have space/time you build candles that you can put the church on 3x this will give you extrem much gold and free workers becouse if you need gold you can put food and church on 5x and taxes on max or if you need workers put taxes on -1 and food and church on 5x so you can continuously klick on the bowriders (if you have gold) and can recruit faster then anything units.
Units:
Type:
i never recruit meele units the only units i use are bowrider they are mobile amd fast.
the templ knigts are bulls…! they are slow expensive and usless! if you ever need melee units ninjas will do!
defence units:
normal bowunits AND crossbow why simple crossbow is heavy damage dealer but the range and shootspeed are not as good as the normal archer so mix them up on a middel (100stone) tower i put 20-25 archers and 8-10 crossbow units.
sige units:
only use the normal catapult or if the enemy has good guarded walls use trebuchets but always guard them with your bowriders!
in my opinion you win if the enemys castel burn, siege them walls down and burn the economy with smores run with 1 of them in a building everything burns go in with the bowriders and you win!
End:
