I expanded the waiting area in the back to be more player friendly for selecting units, and added a Lord on each end, so it was possible to make it a multiplayer game. Thus was the beginning of the multiplayer "combat arena" concept. I made a holding area and a small torture chamber for the victims awaiting their fate.Īs I wrapped up the final details, of the warrior Vs warrior arena,making them fight so I could get some choice screenshots, I started actually having a good time pitting warriors against each other.I started thinking about a multiplayer version of arena battles, where each side gets a certain amount of warriors, and the last man standing wins the contest for his Lord. Being thrown to the animals was for the most part a form of execution of criminals, enemies of the state, persecuted religious groups,and prisoners of war, for entertainment.
I had a notion that the human combatants in this coliseum would not be there by choice. It is way bigger, there is a bear lair on one end, and wolves in cages on the arena floor. I made a seperate coliseum type of arena for the animal battles. Suddenly it became an arena.There is a waiting area in the back, and all around lowered walls so the view in the arena is never obstructed.I really love the way virtually any height of wall can be made,if only there wasnt an earthen barrier left if a higher than normal wall is destroyed= [ The arena started out having animal holding areas off to the side for use in the fights, but for various reasons,I soon scrapped that and decided to go all human combatants. Then I started adding small pillars here and there, and "torches"(braziers) and it just grew and grew. But as time went on, I was dissatisfied with the simplicity,and added rows of stone "bleachers" for bloodthirsty fans and comrades of the gladiators. warrior type of small combat pit for a visual castle accessory and screenshot fun. I have been working on 2 "combat pit" type things for Stronghold, and Im liking the way they are growing and developing into much more than that!The first was simply a warrior vs. In fact i wrote this post at work today in notepad in anticipation that i was going to be done at literally 1 am. My coliseum is just a massive structure, and will be a little while longer before its done. Ive had this idea since before even coming to SH, but Ive been busy with other projects and games. Just for the record, Ive been working on a combat arena and a coliseum for a week, so I dont want to hear the maker of the stadium or anyone else say Im copying, or took some idea or somthing.I just finished the combat arena up tonight, and I come in here and of course, theres another arena type thing just put up (which might I add, is quite impressive).
