StrongholdNation Staff Team

I have always enjoyed the Stronghold games, and can remember getting my very first one. It seemed very impressive at the time, but nothing compared to the standards of today - especially graphics wise.

My favourite game? Probably Stronghold 2. It's the one I generally play the most, and certainly know the most about, as I have spent many years playing it.

I like the graphics on it (though the graphics on Stronghold 3 & Crusader 2 are much better), as well as the way the game is laid out in its folders - which makes everything easy to find. Most of the game is extremely easy to modify, as you mainly rename files or add to existing components of the game. I have made this website to help to teach and inform people about the Stronghold games. I hope that one day, our site will be home to a great community, and to lots of excellent downloads.

I would like to personally thank all of our wonderful staff team, both past members and present. Without them, StrongholdNation would cease to exist in the same way it does today.

I have played the Stronghold games for years, my first being Crusader 1, not too long after it came out. When it comes to the first two games in the series, I can help anyone out with map or castle design, scripting, or strategies to use in-game. My experience as a member and moderator of Stronghold Knights also greatly helps me in the Stronghold community in general. If anyone has any questions, they can be PM'd to me: if I or one of my numerous friends with skills in all areas cannot help, then I will offer advice and research assistance when possible.

I have been a Fan of Stronghold since it's beginning. It was my love of Medieval History that attracted me. As a Staff Member and "Shepherd" of The History Thread, I try to incorporate different Articles to give Members Ideas for new Maps or Games.
