I know the Telvanni stronghold has the nifty steam guards and the your house is an overgrown fungus. Do either the Hlaalu or the Redoran strongholds have guards or is your fort unprotected?

They're both protected... Kinda. I know the Hlaalu stronghold only has one guard, and a pretty pitiful one too. Inside there are some though, which is ok, I guess. Still, it's much better to just make your own in the CS if you have the PC version.

I went OMG! Holy Moly and such at that Telvanni stronghold when I first earned it. Whoever designed it impressed me. As they say, location location location, though. Always teleported to and from there. Neighbors are vampires don't you know.
The Steam/Sphere Centurions are way better than talking guards. Thanks to Striker, I use them a lot in the CS projects I do.

Ok i got all the papers I needed and gave them to Driler. He told me construction would start "anyday now" i rested/waited for 4 days and nothing happening, he says the same things "any day now" its makes me an angry panda!

If you've given him all the stuff he neds, I think you need to wait a week, then you get a note in your journal to go and see him. Then you'll need to arrange more things for phase 2 of construction to begin.

Morrowind is still the only game in AGES to make me want to use an editor (the previous one was TIE-Fighter). I was also rather unsatisfied by the strongholds and made myself a cozy little place in Pelagiad. ;) It's a bit out of the way, but within a reasonable distance from Balmora, Seyda Neen, Vivec and Ebonheart. ;)
And it has all the space I want for my item collections (I'm a packrat, always putting things away for a rainy day)...

Yeah the game's strongholds really aren't worth the time. My favorite house mod is Abandoned Flat. It's got everything you'd ever hope for.

I vaguely recall that when you wait for the next phase of your stronghold you shouldn't do it within the same cell as the stronghold because it doesn't happen properly if you do.
Brad Schoonmaker on 15/9/2004 at 23:15
That's true. Once I waited forever to have that Orc sculpt the statue on the western coast so I left the area for a bit and came back and the thing was done. Sensitive artists... ;)

I loved my Telvanni stronghold. I made a small mod to give a couple of my merchants more money (10k) and to give them decent clothes instead of the rags they were wearing. I added a golden saint guard in the back and some very tough skeletons in the dungeon (that actually managed to kill my lvl 53 char a few times). Sadly, the HD on that comp died. I guess now I get to do it again. :D
