Extra Peasants:
Use the following trick to get a lot of extra Peasants (more than the campfire limit
of 24) for buying whatever kind of forces you need from the Mercenary Post or
Barracks. For example, put your Quarries (3 Peasants each) and Oxen to sleep.
There will be that many more in your available amount when buying Swordsman
or something else. Then just turn them back on when you are done and they will
go back to work. This works if you do not want to wait until your Peasants fill up
your campfire again, or you just need them immediately.
Conversation keys:

corresponding key is pressed. Note: The spelling is the same way as it appears

Hold Enemies Captive Inside Their Own Castles :
Take a small building such as an Oxen Tether. Place 1 or 2 of them right outside
the gatehouse(s) of your enemy's castle, but make sure their keep is enclosed
first. Immediately put the Oxen Tethers to sleep. The ground troops will walk to
the gatehouse to destroy them but they can't get through, so they just walk back
to their spot. Your enemy's buildings outside of the castle will spontaneously
crumble because the workers can't get back inside the castle. Also, the gatehouse
(s) you blocked might spontaneously crumble after a while. Soon there will be no
food and the peasants will leave the castle. The small army will be trapped inside
their own walls awaiting your arrival. When your army is built up, you can just
waltz over and wipe the whole castle off the map. (Note: Make sure there are no
enemies outside of the castle, or else they will probably come and destroy your
oxen tethers.
Make your Own Taunts :
First, go into C:\Program Files\Firefly Studios\Stronghold Crusader\fx\Speech or
wherever you installed Crusader. You will find a bunch of sound files. You need a
microphone to do this. To make this easier, put the list of files in alphabetical
order. Now, scroll down to the file Insult1. Insult1=F1 and you get the idea. (You
can double click to listen to the file). Now right click on Insult1 to bring up a menu.
Look down the list and find, "record". Click on that and it should bring up the sound
recorder. Press record, record what you want to say and click stop. Instead of
going to file save, press the close box and it should come up with a message
stating the directory of the file changed and it will ask you if you want to save the
changes. Click yes. Now, you can go into the game, press F1 and you should hear
your recording. You can also do this with any other file in the speech folder. Note:
Be aware that you can't change the file back to its original voice unless you
reinstall the game. This is based on Windows XP and it might not be the same on
Windows 98. etc.
Food management:
It is easier to build, manage, and supply Inns rather than food because ale lasts
longer. You can use the extra available farm space to build wheat fields and mills
to make flour. Once you have flour, you can sell it for a profit or you can make
bread and raise your taxes.
Selling weapons:
You can sell crossbows for more than just wood and can sell swords for more than
raw iron.
Archers:
It is cheaper to buy archer bows and make Archers out of your barracks than it is
to hire them from the mercenary post. They both have the same attack rate,
defense rate, movement speed, and range.
Crossbowmen:
Crossbowmen are useful for base and offensive measures. You should build up at
least fifteen Crossbowmen at the start. Buy them and place a tower near a
stronghold or farm, depending on the landscape. For offensive tactics, build up at
least 75-100 Crossbowmen, 2 Balista or 8 Assassins and 2 Catapults. Take out
enemy tower first, then move the Baslistas and Crossbowmen in for the kill. Pick
off enemy troops and use Assassins to take the gate house, or have a Siege
Tower so you can get on to the ramparts. Then, have your Crossbowmen shoot
the Enemy Lord while only suffering minimal casualties. Note: This does not work
well in multi-player games against human opponents without the support of a lot of
Swordsmen. However, this is still a high risk tactic in multi-player mode as the
opposing lord may wipe out your Crossbowmen. For base defense, when you have
your production up and running, you need to have two to three large Siege Towers
full of Crossbowmen. This tactic works very well. To get crossbowmen recruits up
and running, build one or two dairy farms. Then build three Tanners to each farm
and have three or more armorers to build crossbows. Have eight or more
peasants around the campfire. You should have your keep enclosed by now. If you
have a money source, you can buy Crossbowmen. Have many iron mines or
quarries for income. Also, you can have inns and raise taxes. You should also
have gardens for the people.
Lookout towers:
Lookout towers are very useful, as they give good missile unit defense. Build an
army of 20 Archers and select 5 of them. Set the game to slow speed and send
the 5 archers to the tower. Quickly select another 5 Archers and send them in
before the others get there. Do the same for the other 10 to get 20 archers on a
small tower.
Mangonels:
Tower-mounted Mangonels can prove to be good siege weapons. In many maps,
the keeps start in close proximity to each other. Build your walls out as far as they
can go. Place round towers and lookout towers on the wall facing your opponent's
castle. Fill them with Archers and Mangonels. In many cases, you can hit the
enemy's walls with the Mangonels from you own. Also, if you Archers can reach
their walls, you can clear his Archers from your own walls.
Mounted Knights:
Mounted Knights are very useful for being a thorn in the enemy's side. Build 20 to
40 of them (depending on the enemy; Rat will only need 20, but Saladin will need
40). Send them out to destroy enemy farms and resources. Make a destructive
sweep, then return to your castle. This is quite useful for stalling enemy production.
Siege equipment on walls:
Use the following trick to get siege equipment on walls (not the mounted ones that
are bought, but the ones that you make). Build a Gatehouse connected to a wall
and build stairs far away from this. Send the equipment that you want through the
gate from the outside to the inside. As soon as they are inside the gate, shut it and
they will appear on the wall heading for the stairs. Stop them where desired (but
not on towers as they will disappear), then you have a nice weapon on a wall.
