The Castle is the Order's headquarters in Strife. It uses the music track "Strike".

Overview

Spoiler Warning: Plot details follow.

When the player has accomplished Macil's first few missions (freed the prisoners, destroyed the power crystal and opened the castle gate in the sewers), he participates in the assault to the castle along with many Front's rebel troops. The castle is defended by stalkers, sentinels, acolytes and crusaders. There are some ceiling turrets on the three highest skill levels as well.

You are sent in to find and kill the Programmer, who controls the AI of the acolytes. The Programmer is located in the keep at the back of the castle. The audience chamber and the training facility are two other accessible levels. After you kill the Programmer, the castle begins to serve as the new Front base.

Spoilers end here.
