Stronghold: 2nd edition

A two-player siege game in which one side defends a fortified stronghold while the other side mounts an assault to breach it within seven rounds. The board shows the castle and surrounding terrain; attackers are preplaced in the field and advance each turn while the defender mans walls and repairs damage. Players recruit and train units, build war machines and defenses, and use special abilities and hidden objectives or defense plans to steer their strategies. Combat resolves in repeated skirmishes each turn as attackers attempt to break in and defenders try to hold the line until time runs out.
