However, players are able to use torch-holding peasants and other fire-based devices to explore the map at night. Ī new fog-of-war mechanic was introduced for night-time game play, during which all areas outside of the immediate vicinity of the player's castle are hidden in darkness. Castle construction is no longer confined to a grid-based system. īuildings in Stronghold 3 are more dynamic than before, with the housing capacity and appearance of hovels changing the further they are built from the player's keep. In addition the game engine features a new weather system and advanced lighting. The game engine utilises Havok physics, which influences the effectiveness of burning log traps and causes buildings and castle walls to crumble realistically. Players are also able to 'change history' by choosing whether to attack or defend a number of historical castles in the game's castle siege mode.

Both campaigns are fully narrated, telling their stories with a series of black and white graphical novel interludes. A story-driven military campaign that chronicles The Wolf's return through a series of traditional real-time strategy missions and a sim-based economic campaign which has the player focus almost entirely on village productivity and resource management. Players are able to choose between two single-player campaigns. The Boy helps rebuild the Abbey destroyed during the war.(The boy does not help rebuild the abbey if he dies at the end of the military campaign, killed by The Wolf.) In the Economic Campaign, which takes place after the end of the military campaign. By raiding towns and villages in the dead of night The Wolf has created a tide of panic, with The Boy and his allies the only force to stand against him. The Wolf, it seems, has cheated death and become bitter, twisted and psychotic during his painful recovery in the east. Set 10 years later, Stronghold 3 follows the continuing story of The Boy. Eventually The Boy confronted The Wolf in his tower, after an intense battle he impaled the enigmatic Wolf on his sword and threw him to what he thought was his death. It was here that he found a small band of troops still loyal to the King and, with the help of Lord Woolsack and Sir Longarm, began to take back the country county by county. After the capture of the King abroad, enemy invasion, civil war and his father's ambush en route to negotiate a treaty with The Snake, The Boy was pushed back to a forest on an overlooked peninsula. The original Stronghold told the story of The Boy and his quest for revenge against Duc de Puce (The Rat), Duc Beauregard (The Snake), Duc de Truffe (The Pig) and Duc Volpe (The Wolf) for the ambush and murder of his father.
