Man, it sounds like that Brickfest was pretty darn cool. I wish I could have

Well, there are actualy only wall-walk doors on the sides facing the walls.
Facing out are arrow loops. I said to myself, "Hey, I'll just let the
archers up on the top worry about the fools trying to climb up."
Also, I don't know if you noticed, but there are walks *inside* of the wall
as well as on the top. That's how the arrow loops imbedded in the walls are
reached.
More raytraces coming soon...
