One word - "marketplace"!

The market place was the center of the medevil town.  Now we castle builders
need to become merchantmen instead of army generals.

A market stand is built onto a "plot" - say 15x15.  The "plot" may either
have 1 corner or no corner.  Merchandise can be anything.


I really like this idea.  Not sure what you mean by "corner" though, do you
mean the stand is a corner stand so that there are two sides of it open to
the shoppers instead of just one?

Yes, the marketplace would be on a street or road.  You can build your stand
to be literally just a stand, or it can be a building multiple stories tall.

The road idea means we can connect our market stands together when we would
meet at conventions or local club meetings.

I would think 16x16 would be a more natural LEGO plot size.  Do we want to
have build in connectors bwetween the stalls, or little alleyways between them?

16x16 is what I meant ... LOL.

I might have to work on a weaponsmith's stall this weekend.

Yeah.  Lets make some prototypical marketplace stands and see how it works.
We .castle builders may have our own moonbase.  Note the changed subject line.

(...) One reminder since people didn't think about it with the castle town: Make sure your creation is entirely within the 16x16 area, except that it may hang over the street some. Frank (22 years ago, 18-Oct-02, to lugnet.castle)
