Looks nice. I don't know prototypical it is (I can think of a few
military problems with a wall built that way) but it looks strong and
imposing.
I don't like the slopes at the bottom, though; I think it would
be better to have the walls go right down into a wet moat. And the towers
don't live up to their wall; they're these wispy little things on big,
beefy walls.
