It's also Heinrich and not Siegfried who escapes in the first version. When the Romans take the castle, they keep only Heinrich prisoner and let the Lion soldiers return to their king.

Baron Blacktower and Jory are also released, and arrive later. The meeting of kings is held soon afterwards, but I never finished making all pictures of it since the accident happened during it. King Phillip hosts it, and here its the conclusion of the story.

And in this version, Siegfried's wife Mary comes along with her uncle King Miguel to demand his release. Sadly the picture where he begs to be kept in prison is also lost.

And that's all the pictures that remain of the first version of these three chapters. A lot is missing as you can see, theres many gaps. And it would have been impossible to reshoot the missing pictures, especially everything considering the siege. Repositioning all soldiers, stones and such to lay in the right place for the missing shots would be more work than shooting the whole story again.

I do plan to have a proper siege battle again sometimes, but that time it will be with a castle specifically designed for it. With my limited tools to dress up the enviroment and the design of my 3666 setup it simply was near impossible to work the angles properly to not get unwanted stuff in the shots.

While storywise I'm quite pleased with the eventual result of the story, I will be first to admit that the visuals where a step back from the Chivalry and Dread Chapter that came before.
I'll see about making something quite different for the next story, to really put myself to the test.

That siege battle was really something, thanks for sharing the photos with us. It's too bad you lost it, but the change in plot I think worked really well and made for an especially interesting story.

Thanks for sharing these lost pics - the siege has some really great shots (as usual)... And the knight mounting the horse...

Thanks, I'm quite happy some good pictures survived though some really good ones got lost.

But I did learn a lot from all of it, so when I do come around to having a story with a siege battle, it will be all the better.  :)
