12. The Host - Stronghold Crusader Extreme HD Trail [75 SPEED NO PAUSE]

Me vs Wazir, Marshal, Emir, Sheriff, Richard, Pig And Philip. This is actually one of the hardest missions in Crusader Extreme, I'm surprised how well the game handles this amount of units.
So the map gives you some archers outposts which are really handy, apart from every other outposts there's also this slave outpost which produces a never-ending train of slaves. Just see it for yourself it's insane lol.
He had 3K active troops at some point.

Those massive lines of slaves send shivers down my spine

[@lordyeezus]

My strategy is to block everything with walls and keep one side open and fill the side with archers and fire throwers and shieldsof course. Sometimes I create a maize that buys me more time to kill everyone. Fire throwers work like a charm.

[@dannymartinez6777]

Probably my favorite level of the campaign. For some reason i enjoy building different castle variations in this level while trying to withstand the horde.

I almost treat it like a Free Build mode but with the constant threat of being overwhelmed by 100k troops

[@danialm.s796]

This mission was a memorable one. I still remember it. I lost it three times. Finally, I did the following;
I blocked the lower left river at the beginning of the game with walls and some archers on top of them. Consequently, all the lords attacked me from the top river. Then, I put a tower close to that river full of crossbowman and archers. Also, I built several dairy farms and used fear factor at max. After that, whenever a group of soldiers were passing the river toward me, I bombarded the river with seek cows. In addition, I put some ballista close to the tower as well. :D

Stronghold Crusader in 2021? Pogchamp!

[@encepjones2128]

I always remember my father would play on this map on ur position
His Strat is to make wall of tower on the east, pack it with fuck ton of longbow and block the river crossing
He like to stack up kills over slaves
I remember he got 60k kills from killing those poor slaves 😂

I love watching you looking for gap in these slave line xD

[@jasonvolkanov3123]

I just finished this match though I blocked the path with ox carts then dug a massive moat

[@analistatv8108]

The mission with a time limit, as if you are not fast enough, the game crashes due to that insane outpost that literally prints slaves

[@pureskill123]

This is one of the few extreme missions that have some semblance of balance wherein you don't feel compelled to rush any opponents.
There should have been more missions where you get at least one outpost.

Man those slaves Died like lambs taken to slaughter 👍🏿 Glorious 🤣 i mean Sad

[@behrouz6625]

Good job my lord

[@fitstrong8751]

Can you win this level without the magic bar (spells) ? I'm managed the 11 st mission without it.

[@silverrakhsh34]

Impressive!

[@mitchellfagan7701]

Stronghold crusader extreme was an absolute blast to play
I still play it today and the crusader version
I managed to finish all the levels of both games but it was infuriating at times 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@NostaleFreak96]

I just finished the extreme trail 100% with ONLY building macemen. And on top of that: No walls, no towers, no economy. Only macemen xD

[@mustafakashif7202]

I have completed strong hold crusader extreme

[@user-wh5iq2yl8b]

whats the difference between the non extreme one ?

[@Jefflenious]

The extreme version has 2 new mechanics:
1. The outposts: They automatically produce free units for you, usually the map gives some outposts to the AIs to put you at a disadvantage.
2. The powerbar: This is a player only thing, you generate meter throughout the match and you can spend them on abilities like spawn macemen/spearmen or arrow valleys, you can see me use them in the video
Overall the extreme version is supposed to be slightly more challenging and unfair for the player, though I believe the normal version is way harder if you're not abusing the AIs lol

8:15 my gawd. Thats so annoying tho

[@varantbedrousain7264]

Why do you have two barracks?

[@Jefflenious]

Only one barracks, the rest are outposts (they look exactly the same)
Each mission gives either you or the opponents a few outposts which will automatically spawn infinite amounts of units until they're destroyed, that's one of the main mechanics of Stronghold Crusader Extreme
