This is really cool!!  I was think of using that kind of baseplate (from 6091)
to make a gatehouse for my castle, but it looks like you beat me to it!  ;)

Here is the link (I think I've improved the format ...):

Thanks for all the feedback on the last one - it really does wonders in
keeping builders motivated and making the pages and structures more user
friendly.

Well, I have a few suggestions, so I'll get to 'em.

~ Third row down (under details), left-most picture.  The caption says the
gate is down, but it is up.
~ If I owned this fortress, I wouldn't want to use hot magma(1) inside the
courtyard.  It would leave a rather...permanent fixture on the ground.  ;)
~ The guy in the control room is rather unprotected.  He is a sitting duck for
archers in the courtyard.  Perhaps the wall should be higher?

I hope these suggestions help!  Keep up the awesome work!

1 - Geology nitpick:  Magma is molten rock below the surface.  When it reaches
the surface, it is called Lava.  Oh, and by definition, water is magma/lava.
So next time you turn on the faucet, remember, Lava is coming out of it!  ;)
