In addition to horribly disfigured pumpkin heads, your peasant populace also have entirely new names like Roger the Ripper, Tristram Pumpkinhead and Reginald Bloodcurdle. The solution? Squash any temptation to hollow out their new noggins and put them to work, ideally as far away from your corrupted keep as possible! You could attempt to burn these problems away with the new green wildfire, however we have a strong feeling the curse may only be lifted by those who cast it.
The Stronghold Halloween updates are now available on Steam for players who have downloaded the latest versions of Stronghold 2 and Stronghold Legends. This event will last eight haunting days, with the above spooky cosmetic changes in place until November 2nd at 10am GMT. After this the spell will break, your peasants (and their names) returning to normal and the eternal green fire becoming regular garden variety not-at-all-magic fire once again.
Happy Halloween!
