the age of the crusaders has gone but left some Remnants !!!!

User Rating: 8 | Stronghold: Crusader Extreme PC
By HAMODA | Review Date:
One thing Up front...I like Stronghold and Crusader. Now...with that said...Crusader Extreme is for those of us that have been clamoring for a "harder" version of the old Stronghold/Crusader game. Not Stronghold II (which really sucks...) but of the original version.

Now, the scenarios are a helluva lot tougher and the armies are massive. A few nifty features were added and the AI does take better imitative...but that's it. Which is enough for me...but not at $30. And frankly...they really need tp fix and add a feature to the editor. You have to manually add new scenarios from the editor to the Custom listing...and they need to add back the support (ie money, supplies, triggers etc ) feature. And damn it...add back in THE SANDBOX!

Yes I gave it an 8 because it's the same Crusader game. It's still the a great Castle sim. It just need some fixes.
