Stronghold is a historic real-time strategy game developed by Firefly Studios. While the game focuses primarily on conquest and expansion through military pursuits, Stronghold does provide space for economic strategy and development: there is both an economic and a military campaign to be played and both are discussed in the game manual. The game takes place in Medieval Britain around the time of AD 1066, though, since there is sometimes no time limit, scenarios can continue to hundreds of years beyond this date.
Runs well on modern hardware.

absolute classic. well balanced, great art, funny voicelines, so much character. would recommend if you like rts and base building.
Bought and played this game the first year it came out. It was ground breaking. Still fun to replay. Recommended!
The greatest mistake my Dad ever made was buying me this instead of Rome 2 I fell in love with this game and bought it the moment I saw it on steam it's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ fantastic. It's hard don't get me wrong but it's a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ phenominal series. The devs who made this game deserve the sloppiest of top. I still have my entire disk set from back in the day I don't care I'm buying em again they deserve the money.
