Stronghold Deluxe Economy Campaign.
I swear to freaking God, that is impossible, unfair and mean!
You encounter certain events througout, but those appear at an alarming rate, in the most impossible places, all at the same time!
I'll show you what I mean:
I was playing, I had to gather some food and beer. The only usable floor is in a valley, so there's all my greenery, safely chucked away from the point on the map where the baddies spawn.
Now, sounds good, right? NO!
At one point I had 2 fires and 3 groups of enemies. 1 group of enemies is about 6 guys, I IN TOTAL had 6 guys, because all my citizens perished in the 2 fires! Then the game has the guts to put my popularity under 50, because of enemy invasion, fire and a lack of food because of points a) and b)!
A popularity under 50 means people are LEAVING, so all the people who die are not replenished, nor do you get new people. Also, to get an army going, you need money. To get money, you raise taxes, which in turn lowers popularity.
You end up with ashes where your farms used to be and no citizens. Bribes are needed to get your economy back up, emptying your treasury, so it can be plundered and burned down again.
If you see a vicious cycle of messed-up rolling before your eyes, you're not the only one, I left the game to quietly die in a dusty corner.
