I know SK is marked as free to play, but is the game itself freeware? They don't seem to have much info out on the game.

Currently it's meant to be freeware but you will naturally have to sign up for playing as it's an MMO. There is a card system in the game that will cost money though the price is not known yet. The cards gives you a little extra like, higher production or faster construction or some free resources. The normal cards are instant (free resources) or lasts for 6, 12, 18 or 24 hours.
You can also buy a special card that allows you to que up to 5 buildings in the construction line or 5 researches in the research line. It also allows for auto trading and auto foraging in the local parish and allows you to move the buildings in your villages around for better efficiency. Currently the special card lasts for 7 days. How much the cards will cost I don't know but the game is fully playable without using cards, they only give you a little extra boost.
Please note above is subject to change as the game is still in alpha.

Hmm, I'll have to check it out. Kind of reminds me of OGame which I was obsessed with for a while.

Well, if you enter your email here: Stronghold Kingdoms there should be a very good chance you can partake in beta testing.

Done. It's Windows only, right?

Yes, Windows XP SP2/Vista/Win7, and IE 7 (IE8 recommended) must be installed on the computer but does need to be the default browser. The game installs Microsoft DirectX but it does not hurt to install the latest release, I believe the latest is from June. I have IE7 on WinXP SP2 and IE8 on Vista SP1 and have no problems related to that.

Not that I am into steam trains but I like them too, all those interesting details compared to a modern streamlined train.

Carefull in the tunnel, the echo might mean there's a train on the tracks.
