Hi Pawel and Craig! I think this whole Idea is great! Excellent work Pawel! Might even inspire me to put something together finally... You might want to consider Danish words that mean "Land of Castles" or "World of Castles" or perhaps Latin. This (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.castle)

I don't know if this has already been thought of by Pawel or anyone else, but I'll say it anyway. On Pawel's "Castle-World" website, he says that he needs to know the dimensions of the universe. I think distances should still be measured in LUs. As (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.castle)

I like your ideas, but a few questions: -What units are LUs? (not light years I guess) -How would you determine who wins the war? Army sizes aren't enough, there are cases throughout history where little armies overcame big ones. (e.g. Maccabies (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.castle)

I like the wink to Tolkien, but it seems to me that lego castles are a bit more Arthurian than Middle Earthy. What about "Bricktannia"? Or a variation on Camelot, something like "Camedot" or "Brickelot", but maybe something stupid sounding. Of (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.castle)
