Lenny, it was great meeting all of you guys at my 1st Brickfest. I think this
whole idea needed to be done and I have built one walled segment. I am going to
modify my remaining walled segments (from 4 Battering Ram sets) to this
standard. I see that you have followed the existing Castle walls and building
patterns. This is going back the the classic look that I feel is a compromise
between what Castles really looked like and the 'Lego Classic' look. As a
Gamer, I have only one difference in my sets. I went one brick higher to give
the minifig on the wall more protection. This makes my walls 9 and a third
compared to you and Lego, which is really not a problem. If I should bring my
Castle segments to a fest event and join with others, I can either leave the
wall height as is or just remove and modify my walls to fit other people's
sections. Great job on the standards.
Don
