Stronghold is a historical real-time strategy game developed by Firefly Studios in 2001.

This article is a work in progress. ...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes. Notes: This game has a lot of unused content.

To do: Needs clean up.

Unused Graphics

Misc.

chartest

A very basic drawing of a stick figure holding a knife.

pig_attack

This graphic would have been used in the invasion menu from the freebuild gamemode. Unfortunately one of the developers forgot to implement this, rendering it unused.

corpyright

An unused copyright graphic. Note how the filename is misspelled as "corpyright."

credits

Unused graphic for the credits.

Villain Placeholders

Placeholder icons for when a villain messages the player.

Rat

snake

pig

wolf

Sketches

A bunch of sketches that go unused.

crossbowman_sketch	army_sketch	heads_on_spikes_sketch While "heads on spikes" are used as decorations, its sketch is unused. Clicking on "heads on spikes" doesn't do anything.	siege_engineer_sketch
stockpile_sketch	trader_sketch	tunnelor_sketch Note how the filename is misspelled as "tunnelor."	weapons_sketch

fearfactor_sketch

This sketch is an identical duplicate of stocks_sketch (not stockpile_sketch).

2 Unused Locked Category Buttons

These 2 images are in interface_buttons.gm1. You never get to see these category buttons get locked.

Regional Differences

Maps

To do: Get image of original for comparison. Apparently Polish, Japanese, Brazilian, Russian and seemingly all versions also had their own maps, get those too.

The German version of the game takes place in... Germany.

The Bard's Song

Left-clicking the bard several times in the German version makes him sing a very out-of-place song. This was removed in the HD patch.
