Every square centimeter used up.  ;D

Reminds me of my at the moment suspended byzantium land walls project.

A suggestion: you might consider mounting a few towers on the outside of the walls.

I have thought of that , creating square towers protruding to the outside and therefore creating more angles and top areas for defence , but i wanted to maximise the usage of space and its already taken up and always liked long steck straight walls. I shall be getting soon another order of steck parts in the order of another 1500 parts , I realize i needs twice as much space for building properly the design i have in mind with another set of walls on the outside and teice as big the town space. That wont be happening till late 2011 so meanwhile i have to compromise with this available area ...

When i have more space i will build the outside wall with lots of square towers ( i have over 24 left ) and they shall be protruding from the outside wall giving the design an even more byzantine look , more of an Emperor's Theodosious Wall fortifications of the Constantinoupole. That I am afraid wont be happening now, space is already limited god nows how i will sqeeze on the other table the 5 dragons kingdoms , the forrest, mary men, the magic and the animals and of course the vikings /gauls and their ships !!!! Need more space . and more nuremberg guards !!!

A piece of advice!

Lower the inner round towers.There are too tall without a meaning.May a level higher than the outer towers.I love the keep's section outer wall with the big floor you can add a level up to the inner wall.
keep the good work George!

You have not show us the main gate!!

 :no: :no: :no: :no: :no: :no: :no: :no: :no: :no: .. tall round towers are cool !!!!

Inner round towers stay at that level and might add another one in fact i have the steck for it ... inner wall i want to keep one level otherwise it looks abit claustophobic i think especially the kings quarters... the main gate is shown Sire in one of the pictures, there are two gates and above are 6 boulder release defence mechanisms , i will take a couple more pictures next time !!!!

Need more space and more steck !!!!

Actually I agree with Grangel,
they look a little awkward sticking out of the middle like that,
way above anything else around them...
Besides, you could make lots of smaller round towers if you took those apart. :)

I might put these round towers at the point where the barracks are separated by the city and on the outerwall , and put a couple of lower round towers inside .... i think i need some round tower walls to build more round towers and there is no way i am lowering these towers i really like them !!!!  ;D ;D ;D ;D

I am not so sure about going double heigh stecks in the inside walls also.. i have the steck for it but i think it will look all too claustophobic .... will give it some thought when at playmoden next !!!!

Now that Grangel and WoT have said it I have to agree that the tall internal towers look weird, but its your castle so keep doing what you're doing.

If I had the Steck I would love to have a go at making a castle like Beaumaris in Wales.  it is a classic concentric castle - a castle within another outer wall.  Has anyone had a go at this?

Its not far from the design i shall create once i have a bit more space when i shall build an outer wall with at least 24 square towers on it and a number of gates that is yet to be determined , probably 4 , one on each side ....

Anyways , back to the original topic of this thread , hopefully this Friday /Saturday the steck houses will be set into the city and start allocating the army into the barracks etc etc  ;D ;D ;D ;D
