Strong Hold Cruasader - Hints and Tips Guide

This gude was written by Mamoo and was edited by andrewparker. This 
guide 
will concentrate on hints and tips and other bits of useful 
information.

1. At the begging of the game make plenty of farms as later on you will 
run 
out of space to put them. To escape this problem destroy any enemy or 
allie 
farms.

2. Collect plenty of wood by making plenty of wood cutters and 
occasionly 
borrowing off of friends as eventually it will run out.

3. Protect your castle with plenty o archers and cross-bow men and make 
use 
of bridges and moats ( your allies may dig moats for you.

4. Make plenty of horse archers s they are faster than basic archers 
and can 
fire on the move. They are also only five gold cheaper.

5. For dispatching enemy buildings make fire ballistas. These are huge 
cross-bows that can move about and that are highly effective against 
buildings and troops!

6. Create a few slingers as. They are very easy to kill but they are 
quick 
and have a fast rate of fire. Also, they are very effective in large 
groups.

7. Here is a list of Lords and their weaknesses.

The Rat - Archers and Swordsmen
The Pig - Lots of archers, tunnelers, pikemen/swordsmen and catapults.
The Wolf - I have never defeated the wolf though the advice I give you 
is to 
use knights, swordsmen, pikemen and siege equipment.
Lion Heart - Use cross-bow men, pikemen and catapults.
The Snake - Swordsmen, macemen and lots of archers are all good against 
the 
snake.
Saladin - Lots of slaves are good for burning buildings. Also use 
swordsmen 
and archers.
Sultan - Lots of archers and mace men.
Caliph - I suggest lots of archers and lots of macemen, though you may 
want 
to use a mixture of everything to beet Caliph.
