Stronghold: Undead

About this expansion

Stronghold: Undead is a two-player castle siege expansion with an approximately 120-minute play time, pitting brave defenders against the forces of the Undead.

This battle is not about glory. Both sides fight for time as the Necromancer has eight rounds to defeat the men defending the stronghold. If the undead army cannot prevail before dawn, it will vanish in sunlight.

The pressure increases from the fifth round onward. The Necromancer’s power begins to melt away, forcing payment to keep the army in the battle while defenders continue to die on the walls. Every round brings the struggle closer to its final answer: who will still be standing at dawn?

• A new set of buildings for the stronghold
• A new set of Invader cards
• New Fear level rules
• A Leader board
• Additional extras for the siege

These additions create a tense conflict between an advancing undead force and defenders trying to hold out until daylight. The Necromancer must make the most of limited time and dwindling power, while the stronghold’s defenders face mounting losses on the walls.

With its countdown structure and changing balance of power, Stronghold: Undead gives the castle-invasion story a darker direction. The question is no longer who earns glory, but which side can survive the coming dawn.
