                    With the latest addition to the Stronghold series 
                    players will see an additional range of innovations added 
                    to the brand, including twice as many units as previous Stronghold 
                    titles, three castle styles, three landscapes to fight across 
                    and the addition of spectacular magic and fearsome monsters 
                    to overcome, as well as a completely new strategic conquest 
                    style of play and a range of new multiplayer modes... 
                  Stronghold: 
                    Legends is a real time strategy (RTS) game that builds 
                    on the Stronghold heritage, set within the epic legends 
                    of the middle ages. This chapter includes a new strategic 
                    conquest style of play as well as new multiplayer modes. Gamers 
                    can play as King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table, 
                    Count Vlad Dracul or relive the heroic sagas of the mighty 
                    Siegfried of Germany in twenty-four missions that span across 
                    three unique campaigns. 
                  If 
                    you've engaged in any of the previous Stronghold RTS 
                    games, then Legends will seem like fairly familiar 
                    territory to you. You'll need to build a strong army if you 
                    have any hopes of beating the enemy. Here you can employ pikemen 
                    and archers along with a host of monsters including giants, 
                    dragons and dwarves.  
                  Sadly 
                    though the designers have focussed more on the actually fighting 
                    instead of offering a mix of building design and other strategy 
                    elements. And, on top of that, some of the creatures you can 
                    employ in your army don't actually have the desired effect. 
                    For example dragons can easily be shot out of the sky by a 
                    few archers. 
                  In 
                    all honestly, this game will only really be of interest to 
                    fans of the genre who want to keep up with the latest release 
                    in the franchise. Other gamers should try before they buy.
