The Generics tab has your marker flags, they set where your troops come on the map and where they will go, so you need to place a, eg: blue 1 flag where the invasions come onto the map and a second blue 2 flag where you want the troops to gather before attacking. I am more than willing to help you to know as much as I do on scripting invasions, lets see if we can get you making great maps. The marker tab contains some confusing stuff and FireFly does not want to help with it, they give no answers. I have made a few maps with an enemy castle as well as your estate, some times the invasions will head toward your castle then stop and turn around and go to the enemy keep and just patrol back and forth without ever attacking you, not sure why they do that. Hope that helps, if more is needed ask again.

I have had some success with Harass troops, here I put a second pathing marker, by double clicking the pathing again, in the mines with a Harass troops gather here flag, some times the invasions will go to the mines and do other damage than going straight to the keep. The start flag is where the invasion comes onto the map and they go to the next flag where the invasion will start from. Now go back to the markers tab and place a start flag and a flag where you want the invasion to gather to attack. Open the markers panel, go to the marker tab and you will see 3 tabs, Generic, AI, Pathing, click on the Pathing tab, then double click pathing, double click chain, then place the Pathing marker in the territory you want the AI to attack.

I did manage to figure out how to get the invasions to work, most of the time. Just the basic map editor tutorial they came out with a few months ago and it's not about scripting.

you can add gold to your coffers to speed up building.Well unfortunately there is no tutorial on scripting for Crusader 2.

you can set automated events, which can randomly come in 4-5 different overall results (ranging from dreadful to welcomed).

you can choose from a number of preset invasion armies, which randomly enter the map and test your defenses.

You also have a modest number of options to tweak the normally peaceful gameplay: Here you can play and focus on building your domain without the interference of enemies. Sandbox is Stronghold Crusader 2's castle builder mode. The game lasts until the victorious player/team is left standing alone. Numerous settings can also be applied to the game, such as toggling game events and trading options. You can choose any map, participating AI players and starting conditions (gold and resource stocks). It is possible to organize and create your own skirmish missions in the game. This is purely thematic and has no effect on gameplay.įor the list of Crusader 2 skirmish trail missions, jump. Unlike in Crusader, there are no chickens to skip missions.Ī unique feature in the campaigns is the constellations, which shape the skirmish route. Completing a particular mission in the trail may open up a next skirmish trail. Any mission can be replayed countless times.

There is a total of 6 trails in the game (double the sum with DLC), which all start locked.ĭuring skirmishes, the difficulty and the map layouts become harder as progress is made. The preset skirmish trails are much shorter, consisting of 3 to 7 missions each.

The Skirmish Trails are a series of missions, which put you against AI opponents in different maps and situations, just like in Stronghold Crusader. Just like its predecessor, Stronghold Crusader 2 offers several single player game modes, which the player can play themselves alone.
