thank you! i had always wanted to build a tall castle, because the real things
were quite tall. the round towers were an afterthought, and the supports for
them are kind of ratty, but they work, and i think they give the tower a more
authentic feel, as castles were built over time, and those towers appeared later
than when the castle started, so when they finally got to the top of the tower,
they incorporated the newest building features of the time.
