Uninstall your SHC 1.3, install 1.1, and then you can start thinking about playing with actual decent/good players.Īfter you have joined gameranger, there are several things you need to keep in mind.

Do not expect to play with a good player if you have version 1.3. If someone has an 7-digit account that begins with 7-8-9, it means that he is relatively new to the community. So if someone has an account that has for example only 6 digits, it means that he has been here for quite a lot of years and probably has huge experience. Then you can see the number (ID) of his account. Next useful thing you should know is that it is really easy to check how old someone's gameranger account is. You have 2 solutions for this:ġ - Play with some other player that is not italic with you.Ģ - Try fixing italic using this tutorial: If someone in the gameranger room you are located at has his name written in italic font, like this, it means that YOU CANNOT PLAY WITH HIM/HER! At least not before italic is removed. Also, around 40% of the community is from Pakistan, if you are from Europe, try to play more with European people since you will have less lags (maybe even no lags) with them. For this reason, you will see that most of experienced players play only 1v1 or 2v2 games, since 3v3, 4v4 or anything similar will almost certainly cause lags all the time. It is important to know that the Stronghold Crusader was designed as a game for LAN multiplayer, so unfortunately it gets laggy when a lot of players from different countries play online. Gameranger is a platform that we use for playing online. Let's start by introducing you to the GameRanger: This game may be just right for you, and it will be super fun, but you cannot give up in first few weeks, before you even got to the level where you can see the true potential and fun of 'expert gameplay'. After those first few months, you will notice that you already have the speed you thought you could never have, but also how easier it is for you to now keep track of everything that has been happening. At the same time, it will be very hard to adapt and learn all the rules since thats simply how this community works. If you do everything as you read in this tutorial, you will be amazed by how fast you will be learning and how fun this game is, especially in first 2 months. Before I start explaining, I would like to tell you my experience from this game and what you can expect:įirst month or two will be very hard, confusing, and fun at the same time. We want you to feel welcome and therefore I have wrote this tutorial to make your lives on gameranger easier. We want new players to feel comfortable and to have a place where they could learn, ask questions and improve. We are now trying to fix it with this forum. The problem of the community in past years has been that it stopped growing. The community is small but the gameplay has been developed quite a lot during all these years (since 2002.). Keep them working to fight back against the curse or cower and wait for the horror to pass after Halloween has ended.SHC (Stronghold Crusader) is a very old game and the only place where we can play it nowadays is GR (gameranger).

The return of the Stronghold Halloween Update and corruption of Sir William also means the curse once again falls on Stronghold 2 and Stronghold Legends! Terrify your workers with horrifically impractical and yet somehow perfectly balanced pumpkin-head peasants or purge them from your castle with green wildfire. Tomb stones, rotting pumpkins, cobwebs and more adorn once magnificent castle structures, along with corrupt colours and unholy flames in the workshops of your medieval minions. In Crusader 2 they have been reduced to little more than dust and bones until All Hallows’ Eve, these lifeless subjects wandering decrepit castles in a dire state of disrepair. Rest in peace Nick… Today our Marketing Manager sacrifices himself to bring you Halloween updates for three separate Stronghold games! Celebrating this most unhallowed time of year your peasants have been cursed in Stronghold Crusader 2, Stronghold Legends and Stronghold 2.
