Medieval stuff could be a little corny but I like the game overall.

Re: FIRST STRONGHOLD Discussion

Audience selecting the final defense is going to be interesting... love how that works with the medieval theme!

Also, extremely different way of using ranking points this year. You earn ranking points not only by winning the match, but also breaching the defenses and capturing the tower.

Re: FIRST STRONGHOLD Discussion

It looks like teams with more members with have a defense selection advantage since their yells will be more pronounced.

It reminds me of 2012 and I predict it will play out similarly. Smart teams should have a significant advantage early as they will be focusing on barriers and scoring low while non-experienced teams will likely be attempting to score high.
