So, you want brown wall sections, but you want them to be 1 by 5 by 6 kind,
like the black, grey white, yellow and red windowed ones, NOT the 1 by 6 by
6 white and brown ones with the logs already moulded into them?

Not to pop your bubble, but I don't personally recall seeing motte and
bailey castles that incorporate a half timbered look. I may be wrong, but I
always thought the half timbered style came into use in the late middle
ages. If you're looking to make a typical motte and bailey castle from
around 1000-1100, you might be better off doing it all with the brown wall 1
by 6 by 6 timbered wall sections from Fort Legoredo. Just a thought.
