[ Release Notes ]
Embraced by the historical landscape of medieval Europe at the time
of the Hundred Years' War, the player takes on the role of a brave
hero setting out to experience an exciting fictitious story packed
with treachery, betrayal, battles and ambushes. While bad-tempered
neighbors and bloodthirsty robber knights are lurking everywhere
around the deep dark forests of Central Europe, the player also needs
to tend to various vital tasks such as building castles and
fortifications, taking enemy strong-holds by assault, smoking out
bandit camps, fighting glorious battles and, last but not least,
rescuing lovely maidens from the hands of crude barbarians.
Knight Formation:s The sophisticated tactical options featured in
Castle Strike are complemented by knight formations providing for
additional special abilities that are triggered upon the assignment
of a hero to regular formations. Inaddition the unit strength is
significantly influenced by resting times, weather conditions,
altitude, armor upgrades and experience levels.
Combatants: Further to the assignment of a hero featuring particular
special abilities, the player may also select one of three nations
(Germany, England and France) with each of them offering 18 quite
different unit types for combat: Melee fighters carrying swords, axes
or spears, ranged combatants using bows, crossbows or arquebusiers,
bomb-planting saboteurs, sappers and, of course, fully armored
knights and their proud warhorses.
Automatic Labour Organisation: In order to cope with the tactical
challenges of Castle Strike, the organisation of the player's work
force can be managed very easily: Clicking two buttons will turn a
nation's workers into builders (for automatic building, repair and/or
fire extinguishing) or collectors (responsible for gathering
resources) respectively. Both resource production as well as labour
organisation for the most part can be handled by either moving a
slider or placing direct orders.
Castles: As soon as sufficient resources are available, the player
can start building a massive castle. The keep and the military
installations inside should be protected by upgradeable walls that
are both passable and climbable. Heavy artillery placed within the
castle towers will help repel hostile attacks. Additional enhanced
defense measures can be implemented after extensive research.
Pattern System: The Pattern System is a unique feature to Castle
Strike and was specifically designed for this game. It enables the
player to carefully plan each phase of construction well in advance
before actually erecting the castle thereby avoiding the waste of
resources due to badly designed fortifications. There are more than
25 historical economic and military buildings available for each
nation.
Siege Armoury: The siege armory comprises impressive towers, rams,
ballistae, catapults, mortars, trebuchets, cannons (e.g. the Hollow
Hanna ) and many more. All of these weapons must be operated by the
player's own army. If left unattended or abandoned, the enemy may
seize this kind of weaponry.
Random Generator: By use of the random generator the player may
create new single player and multiplayer maps for up to six human or
AI players.
Historical uniforms, armoury, landscapes and siege weaponry, stylish
medieval buildings, an intriguing (fictitious) story stretching out
over 30 varied missions, realistically animated and highly detailed
units, a freely moveable and zoomable camera and a stunning selection
of tactical and strategic options all of these features make Castle
Strike stand out as an absorbing game experience for up to six
players (in multiplayer mode).
