One that has alot more modularity, play value and expandibility than any
castle set since, say, 6080 in the mid-eighties.

Really, I have enough generic wall plates, turents, etc to last me for a
long, long while.  I'm thrilled to have the new minifigs, parts and ideas
that Harry Potter and Classic Monsters are creating.

However, what I am noticing is that short of classic sets and legends,
it's getting darn hard to get troops for castles. There are very few
sets with weapons these days (well ok, we've still got light sabers,
some six shooters are sneaking into Star Wars, and there's the
antifreeze spears in Alpha Team, and there may be a few other spears
here and there, and there's an occasional sword or shield, but by and
large the weapons have gone away - it's almost as if TLC has listed to
our talk of the hypocrisy of not being a war toy and producing pirate
ships).
