Stronghold: Undead (Second Edition) – Kickstarter Edition

Players defend a fortress against a Necromancer who leads an undead army toward the walls. A powerful magical artifact inside the stronghold can restore the Necromancer’s power if the castle falls within eight turns; if defenders hold out, the undead weaken and fail. The game is a standalone rework of an earlier expansion, presenting a new board with alternative siege paths and revised undead mechanics. Players allocate defenders, deploy fortifications and manage resources while the attacker advances waves of undead and attempts to breach the gates. Victory depends on timing and area control as the attacker races the eight-turn deadline and the defender delays and repels assaults.
