@@stronghold_crusader I love this game so much and i have also created maps for fun since young age until I learned there's AIV lmao, now I'm learning some creation my own versions of A.I, loving the game much now, moreover im excited for the release of stronghold: definitive edition this coming Nov 7, 2023
I think the real problem behind that is the map pool. The maps are too small and often have obstacles in key places. I think there are three potential fixes: - Increase map sizes and mostly clear out spawn locations - Provide each castle with a back-up position for the most important buildings (exit, unit training buildings, armory, etc.). - Have castles defined not by a blueprint but by a set of placement rules.
The biggest flaw in many of his designs is the fact that they only have one single exit. It's inconvenient for his economy AND easy to blockade for enemies.
If you want to use my AIVs (or in general my content) you are free to do so. My pack is free after all. But it should be absolutely basic to link the creator. You present these castles like they would be part of the original game, never mentioning where you got them from. That's pretty saucy. ^^
Of course, u are doing a great job and I love your work. I have been promoting you and your unofficial crusader pack by giving the link: github.com/CrusaderPilaw to people who asks. You can check the comments. I will definitely add that in the description as well. Sorry I was quite immature and new to the patches world when I made this video 😅.
@@mm0private578 Just download and install UCP from github.com/CrusaderPilaw replace aiv and aic files to have modified castles and characters, respectively.
many of those castles i have never seen :O i would like to see championships where players makes their own castles with buildings limit (like max 50buildings maximum 500 stone per castle) and bots are fighting in castle that u have made :D that would be fkn great
I like the idea of multi-layer castles. But it would be best to first build one layer completely and staff it with defensive units before starting with the second layer. The main problem with the Wolf's castles is their upfront cost, making him spend too little on units. Also, the larger the castle, the more defensive units he needs (but not necessarily employs). Very often I have attacked a Wolf early and there were just lots of holes in the castle, due to a lack of resources, as well as single units standing about providing next to no safety.
with that amount of gold and stone needed to be build his castle, I bet it would be a nightmare if he have a very close enemy who likes to set buidling on fire (like Snake or Calph) with a few golds.
Mostly, AI cheats in building castles walls. Without gold or stones, they can build. So, no worries for him there. Once it is complete, it's not easy to penetrate his castle. Also, fire does not reach that far enough into the castle. Let's see if I put one wolf againt 2 or 3 calphs or snakes.
there are only 8 castle shapes per character, everythig else is added onto the game from outside. Don't let him fool you guys. Also if you include modded castles, where are the modded castles i made?
Yes, I got to know there are only 8 castles😂. I added Pilaw castles just an example for advanced and beautiful castles for wolf👏. I have already added description for references and full details. I have added yours name too 🤔. Yes, I haven't used your castles yet. Once I do I will surely let others know. Since you have already found my channel 😊, why not checkout my rest of the content. You are free to comment so that I could improve myself in future. Peace ✌!
@@stronghold_crusader no it's not. Wolf (maybe all Ai/computer) can make castle without stone, it's not like fast sell and buy stone from market. if you want proof, just set Wolf into map without stone and with big space
Damn I really hate that number 8 castle. He had moat behind the short wall, four mangonels on the front towers, four ballista on each towers, and four fire ballista on each side which is the bad news for catapults and trebuchet. All my stones is all gone just for taking down one of them. One of his words that I hate the most whenever I lost all my men, "You are weak and not fit to command an army" Aargghhh.... F you Duc Volpe
@@stronghold_crusader Yup, Maybe I'm wrong as can't access game files right now but vanilla game had 7 or 8 castles. I bet now it was used on one mission and pretty forgettable.
How did you make that bots make more than 8 castle? Which file you modded? Because, in typical ucp patch if you name castle like wolf9, game didn't see that aiv
Shame that some of these magnificent castle designs are easily beaten by a woodcutter hut
I believe in unofficial crusader patch, ppl have fixed this.

@@RandomMusingsOfLowMelaninYes, you need the unofficial crusader patch
@@cp_414 thanks a lot
Will try
I don't know why lords have so many castles but only use like 3 of them
I think they usually change in custom matches. Castle choice is usually based on available space and the opponents I suppose.
And maybe starting gold too

i don't know how he gets so much stone from just 2 quarrys
He spends all of his starting money on stones, rather than on the army or weapons lol. That's why his first attack is quite late.

@WolfZet I found out that AI cheat their castle walls (building without stones) not sure about the towers tho. Will definitely test that out.
nowadays I play this beautiful game on my smart phone.
Stronghold Crusader,Stronghold Europe,Stronghold 1,Stronghold germany.
Cool, I didn't know u can play on smart phones too.
@@stronghold_crusader using exagear strategies app to run pc on android.
I have never seen No 9 to No 12
Those are new castles only available in an unofficial crusader pack. Here is the link to install it: github.com/CrusaderPilaw
@@stronghold_crusader Thanks!
The last 3 wolf castles he can actually make? Never seen those before
Yes, those castles are moded.
The last three castels ??? I have never saw this before ...If stronghold crusader updated or what ??
Love your content, keep up! I'm also sub number 50! good for me :D

Castle 8 is arguably the strongest one
Hey

Aargghhh.... F you Duc Volpe
👏👏👏. Jogo a anos mais não conhecia alguns desses castelos.
Never encountered no.5 in vanilla game or rather I do not remember it.
7 to 12 are from mod and 1 to 6 are vanilla I think so 🤔
@@stronghold_crusader Yup, Maybe I'm wrong as can't access game files right now but vanilla game had 7 or 8 castles. I bet now it was used on one mission and pretty forgettable.
Honestly, from 9 onwards, I never see those even after all those years. Are those from UCP or such?
From 9 onwards are the castles from CrusaderPilaw Mod. Here, checkout a separate video on them:
ua-cam.com/video/1ERoe0_LktQ/v-deo.html
Castle 3 i call it skull castle is the strongest castle i think
Where can I get a mod that let's me change my color properly? I have been using some that are buggy and color changes messy and partially sometimes
I am not sure, sometimes happens to me too like color changes or constant flickering of the taskbar.
I have never seen 10, 11, or 12, how come?
Everyone knows about this from 2002.
I built triangle castles.
Cool
How do you make weapon workshops texture look like these from Stronghold HD? new UCP feature or you manually change files?
U can change the files manually
@@stronghold_crusader thanks, and btw good work with videos, keep it up
Always appreciate Stronghold content 😄
@@kuba4877 Thank you for liking my content.
Big triangel is best
Yes, indeed it has a lot of defenses. I like the lantern-shaped the most tho ^^
Huh... i thought he had only 3 types of castles?! :D Other Lords have also this much types of castles that they build?!
Each has 8 in one mod. Check my other videos for others castles. 😊
You know, the AI usually only has 8 castles it can build...
Yes, originally it is 8 but u can add more. Check out the description to find out more.
Pilaw makes great content on UA-cam and he made good castles for the Wolf. They blend Into vanilla verry well.
How is castle 2 strong? No weapon/armor industry...
This castle has 5 weapon workshops including the armourer. So I think its quite strong.
there are more types of wolf castles
In classical game there are 8 and others u can add by installing various game patches.
@@stronghold_crusader yeah
I like your contents.
@Akmal Khan glad you liked it.
@@stronghold_crusader you know I have been playing this game since 2006.
Number eleven is so op
It's customized by Pilaw.
\Wow
Glad you liked it🙏. Check out the Saladin and Caliph castles as well 😊. More are coming soon!
How did you make that bots make more than 8 castle? Which file you modded? Because, in typical ucp patch if you name castle like wolf9, game didn't see that aiv
Were they all in the original game, I've never seen most of them.
The first 8 are from the original. Others are custom-made by Pilaw.
Butterfly castle is the best one for me
SALUTO FROM BRASIL... WOOW 12 CASTLE WOLF OMG....others Lords have more options Castle??
The 8th castle is more like a trapezoid castle.
