Well done again. I would never have thought to use a road plate like that. You
are demonstrating a tremendous skill to use whatever's available to create good
castle stuff.
So... blue next???? :)

Thanks. :) It's a skill born from necessity, really. I have a very limited
selection of anything in any color. Now that I have Red, White and Black
done, I was hoping to do Yellow, Blue and Green, but I haven't nearly
enough pieces. No weapons, either...I was making things up just doing Red
(they got flaming bombs of oil).

Actually, my sister got into the fun on Saturday and built a Blue/Green
combination (due to lack of minifigs and parts), but the way I suggested
she do it I didn't think turned out well. We decided to do a corner, so
that was easy, but I just didn't like the way it turned out. I'll have to
do some renovation.
Saturday night I and a few friends tried out James Brown's BrickBattles
(http://www.lugnet.com/gaming/~11/brickbattles) variant with my wall
sections and found it spectacular. They have about a billion Castle
minifigs, fully armed, so it was really cool. My sister and I spent about
three hours having it out last night as well (with much fewer units) and we
still aren't done! I have the lousiest archers...

Hey Mike,
I especially like the part in the middle that juts out over the two gates. What
piece makes up the underside of that?

Two of these:

from the good ol' Space Police Set #6897, Rebel Hunter.
This is the first time I've successfully used them in a MOC in a long, long
time. What on earth else would you use something that shape for???
Glad you like it, :)
