Description
Beneath high walls, all understand the value of obedience.
A stronghold acts as a visible symbol of power and keeps the local people in order. It also helps recruitment in a province. It is, however, a rather old-fashioned structure, but a design that has stood the test of time.
Stone was used in Japanese castles and strongholds to create sturdy foundations, something that was important in a nation so beset by earthquakes. Wherever possible Japanese castle builders preferred to use the landscape to create a formidable defence, but often it was necessary to make a stone platform for a castle. This would then support an impressive collection of tiered towers and walls, a sign of both wealth and military might. The older design of stronghold, though, was designed to keep out traditional foes, not deal with modern artillery.
Other Information
It is strongly recommended to upgrade any Stronghold that you have to a Fortress as soon as you have the available money. Failing to do so will risk an enemy assault that is completely unwinnable if you're the defender.
