Hey Aramir,
love to see people thinking about projects and ideas for the community.
First of all, are you aware of the Isle of Mist, a castle community concept
wherein different people from different worlds would send expeditions to a
mysterious Isle of Mist that held some unspecified secret. It was a cool idea
that attracted alot of people, but eventually died because the moderators had
other things to do (real life, etc).
But I think any new group role play, like your Campaign, should definately look
at IOM as inspiration and a lesson.
I think the essence of any real concept of a Campaign is how it would work. A
great concept, but the "how" of it is a make or break.
From what I've seen of Lego RPG games (and most interactive rpg) is the
relative *lack* of combat. In IOM, combat was expressly forbidden unless both
players agreed, which seems to me to be kinda un-like what combat actually
means... but then again, it would be unfair is one guy with a big army killed
everyone off... also in the new space rpg, Starship, combat doesn't seem
super-likely.
My Point= keep thinking about this idea, especially the "how"s of it, and I
betcha it will spark more interest.

Good idea, Aaron! i would say lower class houses would be probably the same size as shops... perhaps a bit bigger. and upper middle class houses would be larger than that. dunno how much bigger; not alot, probably.
