Coat of Arms Tutorial - Stronghold Kingdoms

Lord erze from Stronghold Kingdoms asked me how I recreated the Steam Icon ingame on my Coat of Arms, so here's the Steam Logo step by step tutorial for anyone interested in creating one for themselves. Watch the video below to find out how.


Coat of Arms is a unique image of a shield, designed by each player, to represent their user in game. The Coat of Arms is shown to all players in a game world in various areas of the game interface. Every player can edit their own Coat of Arms using the Coat of Arms Designer.

The user can edit their Coat of Arms at any time by clicking on the image of their own Coat of Arms in game (located in the top left corner of the game interface). The Coat of Arms designer will open in your default web browser.

Designing your Coat of Arms

  1. First, pick a layer from the 'Layers' panel.
  2. Then choose a design from the options available beneath the layers panel (More options will become available as your gain experience in-game).
  3. Click on a design to select it, then change its colour(s) using the 'Colours' panel.
  4. Each layer contains different shield designs which can be combined to create your own unique Coat of Arms. You can place 1 'Subordinary', 1 'Ordinary', 1 'Field' and up to 8 'Charges' on a single shield.
  5. Click 'Preview' to see how your shield will appear in-game.
  6. Click 'Save' to commit any changes made since your last save.
  7. If you'd like to undo any changes made, click 'Undo Changes' t go back to your last saved version.
  8. The trash can button will remove everything from your shield, so that you can start again from scratch.

TIP: The Coat of Arms can be accessed in-game by clicking on it in most instances. Players can also access the Coat of Arms designer by logging in to strongholdkingdoms.com
