Multiplayer patch to add new units for Stronghold 3
Siege Towers and Laddermen to be added with latest update to castle sim
Firefly Studios has announced the release of a new multiplayer patch for Stronghold 3, which adds new units to the game in the form of Siege Towers and Laddermen.
Patch 1.9 is the first update for Stronghold 3 to focus almost entirely on multiplayer. It introduces the Siege Tower and Laddermen units, which can be built from Siege Camps in multiplayer game modes. Siege Towers can be docked against stone walls and loaded with all troop types. Any ranged missile units placed inside the tower will attack enemy troops that are within range, defending the tower as it approaches the castle walls. Laddermen can set scalable ladders against enemy walls, allow individual units to easily reach castle battlements, until the ladder is pushed away or cut down by defending forces.
Online gameplay has been updated with an automatic resync feature similar to the system used in the original Stronghold and Stronghold: Crusader. Multiplayer has also seen tweaks in the form of score rebalancing and increased starting goods, while the maps themselves have been edited to make it easier for players to design and build their castles.
Stronghold 3 was released on PC in late 2011.
