Stronghold Crusader: Definitive Edition - The Surgeon and Baibars PRE-ORDER DLC Global Steam

Invoke the spirits of warriors past

Come, all of you challengers, conquerors, and aspiring kings, and take on the most difficult strategic task to date: defeating both the deadly Surgeon of the Desert and the ruthless Sultan Baibars. The cunning Surgeon is a true master of defense, constructing massive castles with numerous enormous towers in an attempt to keep the enemy out. Don't be fooled by his seeming passivity; like all great predators, he wants to let his victim exhaust themselves before making the last move.

Baibars, a former slave who rose to the rank of Sultan, is far more direct and combative. He builds sturdy, basic fortifications and aims to overpower his opponents with waves upon waves of assaults. If you want to defeat him, you must strike the correct balance between attack and survival as his armies crash into your stronghold's defenses.
