When I opened Stronghold Crusader Definitive Edition just now, the voice that usually says "Greeting Sire" as you reach the menu instead said:

Happy Anniversary to Stronghold - the original Castle-Sim

After checking Wikipedia, it looks like today marks 25 years since the release of Stronghold on 2001-10-19!

Congrats to Firefly Studios. I always loved the original game with the little story between the missions. And I like how they even localised the campaign map, it showed Germany when I was playing in German as a child!

Schlagt die Trommeln, blast das Horn, das Schwein ist im Anmarsch direkt von vorn!
