Age of Empires 2 : We have watch tower and castle. If you garrison your villagers and archers inside, they will become a gatling turret. Max capacity is 5 people for tower and 20 for castle. Stronghold Crusaders : Behold our mighty pillbox and meat grinder. Their maximum capacity is until the sand speaks "your army is at its maximum size."
Age of Empires 2 is much more "mobile" compared to Stronghold. Turtling in stronghold is easier and a large emphasis is placed on taking down walls, while in aoe2 stay in one place with no map control will be heavily punished and fast units like knights are favored
@@ChewingGumFlavor Yeah, that's because the main idea of Stronghold is a chess in RTS form. You will focus more in defense instead of offense and everything on map is already visible just like a chess board. Opponent make movement, you make a counter measure. No surprise attack, hide and seek, or whatsoever (Or the least player will do for this is an assassin rush). Not to mention that Stronghold games are technically an RTS game with only one faction due to same units, same buildings, and everything purely depends on player's strategy, which again just like chess.
@vieri031 until you play one, and it becomes a survival of the fittest. SH Crusader is a game wherein you've to 'really' manage the economy aswell as counter the threats, it's more of a defense strategy game, which is a different approach to the AoE where much emphasis is given to offensive.
@@vieri031 But a weakly designed city builder game with GREAT atmosphere (especially the original SH, with all its autumn-y landscape and amazing lute music 😍)
You know, for years I wished there is a ranked multiplayer mode for this game. But given bugs like this still exist, maybe it's a good thing the game isn't ultra competitive.
@@xMacieX yup I actually like to watch other RTS competitive games but even when Crusader is my all time favourite, the competitive scene is absolute shit. I hope a remaster can rectify it.
Hmm this tactic seems like a good way to cheese an AI but a human would be able to spot this and just pull out the catapult & trebuchet before getting close.
Btw did you know if you going good fear factor you can place gardens in some un accessible terrian so workers dont have to take a long walk to garden and enjoy (stand idlely) instead he will enjoy where he was standing after finishing his work or just place some gardens and block thm with small walls so its become un accessible. This kinda save a lot of time. Sorry for my bad English
@@Djoga100 place apple farm select apple farm pause game P is shortkey click that zzz button slowly two times un pause game.. Another farmer come to farm that apple farm you can do this for ever
Another important thing to mention is that worker also uses well as resting area. I don't know if water pot is counted, but by using that trick you can no longer build fire station.
AI in Stronghold Crusader is designed to rush to your keep as long as your castle is not enclosed, even if your lord is not on the keep. Otherwise, they will destroy your buildings or attack any nearby unit. This is why you can legitimately make a labyrinth as a one way entrance and exit and expect enemy to just storming in without actually hitting any single wall. AI will prioritize your lord as a target only when the lord is caught in its aggro radius.
whaaat 200-300 crosbowmen do their job in defending against 50k attackers, you know 7 vs 1, enemy have 20 outpost spawning troops 15 of them spawning slaves, 2 h later you have few hundreds spawning each second, still nothing to worry about
it's can be really useful but will it be possible to enjoy again when finish all the chapters? I am not sure. i prefer to use portable shield + archer.
Yes They Make Every Unit Attack 25% More Stronger If You Use Maypoles And Other Good Stuff But Your Workers Like Farmer Will Give You Less Apple But If You Use Bad Things Like Hangers Workers Will Give You More Resources However Your Army Damage Will Be Decreased By 25% ( All The Workers)
no. You don't have enough time to set this up before the attacks, nor enough money to actually make it work considering the amounts of enemies. Making a moat to block off the 'side entrance', and setting up square towers with crossbowmen and ballistas protected by moving shields, combined with a labyrinth, and possibly some firebomb throwers on a tower overlooking it against some bigger attacks is the way to go
Wouldn't monks be better than swordsmen?
You can use all the warriors🌹
@@persianstronghold6517 I have a question bro. Are you Iranian? If yes, I heard that this game was very popular in that country. I wonder how.

oh no, the enemy's catapults throw dead cows
They are on stairs, does it work then? On walls it doesn't.
then use a ballista?
Mass catapults is the best solution to all tricks and glitches 🤫
@@OmegaWinter13Indeed
Dead cows don't affect the unit on castles Idk about stairs tho

Have you ever seen competetive games in Stronghold Crusader? It's pretty toxic and also kinda boring since the strats are always the same.
@@xMacieX yup I actually like to watch other RTS competitive games but even when Crusader is my all time favourite, the competitive scene is absolute shit. I hope a remaster can rectify it.

dont worry, catapult can easily counter this
@@_Aidelweiss_ how so cause you can wall in the enemy into their own castle with no way out?
Badass, one of the coolest tricks I've seen in the decades this game has been out
Neat. I only know how to stack archers on that wooden stairs thingy. Now theres a more reliable one

Yup it’s a very old and known exploit. Did you know about teleporting stones from the quarry to the oxen? Uses a similar technique.
@@kotzpenner nop lol i just a newbie beside i m happy only with apple farm glicht hehe

Astonishing, great and bloody as always. Nice job
Thank you kindly😍
Catapult, Ready My Lord!
Yeah
What's the point of even playing at this stage? Do you swarm the enemy lords with 150 horse archers too?
yea, when I discovered exploits like that and weakness of AI I lost the joy of playing
How significant this game still is after all these years ... wow
Thanks. It's a good thing to know in desperate times :D
Bro invented the machine gun in 1096.
Richard brings 3 catapult
This only works if the enemy AI actually doesn't send its army anywhere else but straight at the death tower, I assume.
They probably wont since AI always goes for the most easy way
It will because the castle's not enclosed, the AI will go after the breach, which is where the death tower is
AI in Stronghold Crusader is designed to rush to your keep as long as your castle is not enclosed, even if your lord is not on the keep. Otherwise, they will destroy your buildings or attack any nearby unit. This is why you can legitimately make a labyrinth as a one way entrance and exit and expect enemy to just storming in without actually hitting any single wall. AI will prioritize your lord as a target only when the lord is caught in its aggro radius.
If it's the only (or I think, even the closest) unobscured entry point to your keep, the pathfinding AI will _always_ send the entire army through it.
ai just can go catapults
how can you find so many bugs?
I mean is an old game, is easy to find bugs
These are already known bugs in years
They never patched it
ببین اینجا ایرانه هممون با جنگ های صلیبی گیمر شدیم 😂🤘🇮🇷
And I never knew good things will improve the combat capabilities
Damnn is work ,thx (Know i cant Finiahed Champaigns with this tutorial)
Liked and subscribed! 🏆
I just fking kill around 35000 enemies in last gameplay few hours ago and lost around 1000 troops i wish i knew this trick
WOW😅

Just found this amazing channel
This bug is so cool😂
😂

Yeap you right😉
Whats your game version ?
**О Б О С Р А Т Ь С Я**, просто шок контент. Уже даавно не играю в игры, это моя любимая серия, и много фишек знаю НО ТАКОООООЕ!
As a game dev i know how to fix this bug. Just make stairs as a whole object and recreating this bug not gonna be possible 😅
Wow! I could easily messed up any AI opponent with this technique. For some reason, mission gets easier
Maypole makes your crossbowmen stronger ? What
Lmao
Yes They Make Every Unit Attack 25% More Stronger If You Use Maypoles And Other Good Stuff But Your Workers Like Farmer Will Give You Less Apple But If You Use Bad Things Like Hangers Workers Will Give You More Resources However Your Army Damage Will Be Decreased By 25% ( All The Workers)
How the heck did you figure out this bug?
Nice nice, but few catapult shots and magic wall will be down :)
Is it effective enough in mission 80 to beat all enemy soldiers?
no. You don't have enough time to set this up before the attacks, nor enough money to actually make it work considering the amounts of enemies. Making a moat to block off the 'side entrance', and setting up square towers with crossbowmen and ballistas protected by moving shields, combined with a labyrinth, and possibly some firebomb throwers on a tower overlooking it against some bigger attacks is the way to go
Thats like a machine gun!
Thanks bro

Amazing! I will try it.
