In essence, you are tasked as either a Crusader or an Arabic general, depending on the Tale, and you must complete three missions per Tale, each with a different handicap that you must work through.
With Stronghold Crusader 2, there’s not so much a plot as opposed to a series of battles you must win which are referred to as ‘Skirmish Tales’ in the game. SC2 is not a game without its flaws, but it was very appealing to the RTS fan in me and will ultimately be quite delightful to anyone else who grew up playing any of the classic RTS games. Set in the Middle East during the Crusades, the game allows the player to take control of both Crusaders and Arabic forces as they do battle for dominance across the desert terrain.
Stronghold Crusader 2 is the more than a decade in the making sequel to the popular “CastleSim” Stronghold Crusader.
