[h1]Pumpkin-Head Peasants, New Maps and 15% Off![/h1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8H8m5PxTTE Update to the latest version, load up your favourite skirmish map and take a look at the campfire, because something’s not quite right! A terrible spell has been cast over your (mostly) innocent peasants with the arrival of our Stronghold 2 Halloween Update. Something horrible has happened to your faithful subjects, their once endearing visage twisted and corrupted by the artists at Firefly Studios. Your only hope is to resist the temptation to hollow out and decorate their new noggins, instead putting them to work away from your corrupted keep. You [b]could[/b] try burning your problems away with the new wholly cosmetic green wildfire, although we’re told the curse can only be lifted by those who cast it… [b][u]Halloween Update[/u][/b] [list] [*][b]Pumpkins[/b] – Terrify the locals with horrifically impractical pumpkin-head peasants or break the spell by assigning them work in your castle. [*][b]New Maps[/b] – Besiege friends and family across two new Kingmaker maps, marching armies across bat shaped beaches and pumpkin peninsula. [*][b]Wildfire[/b] – Melt the hearts (also - skin) of your online adversaries by bathing their castles and temporarily disfigured peasants in magical green fire. [/list] [b][u]New Maps Available![/u][/b] [olist] [*][url=http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1181201678]The Great Pumpkin[/url] [*][url=http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1181200888]Das Bat[/url] [/olist] [b]Please Note[/b] - This event will last one week with the above cosmetic changes in place until 2pm GMT on November 2nd. After this time the spell will break, your peasants returning to normal and the eternal green fire becoming regular garden variety not-at-all-magic fire once again. Any maps added to the game for this event will however remain available via the Steam Workshop links above. Happy Halloween!
