Stronghold 1: Match detail

A great game between Swix, Northern, and Nigel. Although the final numbers may not show it, the match was very entertaining to watch, especially the casted version. For beginners, Northern and Nigel both played very well. Nigel built a strong macemen army and used it effectively to rush in and destroy a large number of shields. Northern also had a solid group of crossbowmen and archers positioned on his tower, which helped defend against Swix’s attacks. Swix had a great economic setup that allowed him to consistently produce weapons and maintain pressure throughout the match. There were moments when Northern and Nigel worked together and looked capable of bringing him down. In the end, though, Swix’s constant pressure and siege attacks gradually forced them back, giving him control of the middle King of the Hill keep long enough to secure the win.
