'''Stronghold''' is a neutral alignment [[town type]] with [[Barbarian]] and [[Battle Mage]] [[hero class]]es. Stronghold towns are built by alliances of tribes. Armies composed of stronghold-based units have a balanced mix of [[ranged attack|ranged]] and [[melee|hand-to-hand]] attackers. With the inclusion of the stronger units, these armies are particularly well-equipped to deal with attacks on other towns.
Stronghold's [[native terrain]] is [[rough]].

===Pros===
* Hero classes. [[Battle Mage]] is one of the most balanced classes in the game with a host of useful specials. [[Barbarians]] are the best fighter class available, expect attack ratings to rise fast and keep on rising. With great specials like Offense, a high-level Barbarian is a tough opponent.
* [[Escape Tunnel]]: it´s great to be able to retreat from a siege so you don´t lose your best hero this way.
* [[Cyclops|Cyclopes]] and [[Cyclops King]]s can attack castle walls with their ranged attack. This is a vastly underestimated special that can tip the scale in an attacking force´s favor very quickly, especially when combined with a fast initiative-giving unit and [[Haste]] (Expert level for best effect). High Morale (to enable multiple shots) is also extra useful for them (the spell for this is [[Mirth]]) and if you have the room in your army, every additional stack gives additional shots at the wall! A stack of 1 [[Cyclops King]] 'sieges' as good as a stack of 1000 would.
* Ancient behemoths win a 1vs1 against most 7'th level creatures.
 
===Cons===
* Slow units, the fastest is the [[Thunderbird]] with a [[Speed]] of 11. Ancient Behemoths has 9.
* Magic, [[Mage Guild]] is limited to level 3.
* Only one flying unit, namely the [[Thunderbird]].
* Cyclops and Behemoth lairs both require a lot of crystal to build. This competition makes it hard to have them both out in the earlier times - you have to choose between one of them, while both are useful.
