Well, okay, even if I had the space to build the full outer bailey, the Pig's economy would provide pretty much nothing to fill all that space. There is an outer gate at the original tip, I just moved it to the red line. The red line in the image shows where I had to cut the outer bailey in half. The Pigīig surprise here, Duc Truffe got a french castle. well, if that doesn't sound like Beauregard. The Knights Templar were quite present in Europe as well, escorting travellers, and acting as an early bank, sending their profits to the Outremer.īackstabbing and money. Now, as far as I remember, the Knights Templar went down due to back-stabbing from the french King, who apparently owed them a lot of money. It is decently sized, quite fitting for the rich Snake, was never conquered, and at one point in history was used to imprison some Knights Templar. The Snakeĭear earl Beauregard got himself a french castle as well: Château de Najac. Wait, France? Well, the Rat's name is de Puce, and the Plantagenêts were a dynasty in hold of the English throne. It is tiny, it looks cool, it was quite often besieged and destroyed, and it lies in the Plantagenêt half of medieval France. This castle is based in Château de Culan. If possible, a moat is added to all castles in two cases: If the reference castle has a moat there as well, or if there was a cliff blocking access. You can judge the compromises I made yourself, as every castle preview picture is accompanied with a floor plan, satellite image, or otherwise reconstruction of the reference castle. The required buildings for a bot's economy are just too huge to fit into real historical castle designs, and the keep cannot be re-positioned. Sometimes castle sections get squished, sometimes cut away. The castle miniatures are not entirely to scale. Big surprise, real historical castles often tend to grow away from the keep, and real castles are quite often rather long and thin if built on a rock or mountain. These are not skirmish campaign optimised and often need quite a lot of space in one direction. This is a pack of 16 new castles, all based on real historical ones.
