Board Game Geek Avg Player Rating: 8.00. For 2 players. Published in 2020. This is the Kickstarter Deluxe Edition of Stronghold: Undead Second Edition. It includes the Deluxe Edition core game and the Phantom Dragon Expansion. Note that no other stretch goals beyond the Phantom Dragon Expansion are included, and paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included unless stated otherwise. In this game, the Necromancer leads an undead army to the stronghold walls. There's a powerful artifact inside the stronghold, a magical item full of energy. The Necromancer's powers are waning. He can regain them by storming the castle and claiming the artifact. If the undead army breaches the stronghold within eight turns, they win. Otherwise, the Necromancer's powers fade and the army turns to dust. Stronghold: Undead re - balances the original expansion for the second edition of Stronghold and can be played standalone. The expansion features a new board with new siege paths, undead mechanisms, and more ways for both sides to win. We're happy to support campaigns and offer games like this one for online purchase at TheGameSteward. A large part of your spending will go towards backing new Kickstarter games.

To play Stronghold: Undead, first set up the game board according to the instructions in the rulebook. Place the undead army led by the Necromancer around the stronghold walls. The goal for the undead is to breach the stronghold within eight turns to claim the powerful artifact inside. The other side should try to defend the stronghold. As you play, use the new paths on the board and the undead mechanisms provided by the expansion to your advantage. When it comes to storage, keep the game components in a dry and cool place to prevent damage. Avoid bending the cards or warping the board. If you purchased the game through a Kickstarter campaign, remember that only the included components in the package are part of your purchase, unless otherwise specified.
