Wow, what a piece of work! I'm not building on quite the scale you are, or the authenticity, so I quite respect what you've been able to accomplish here.

(...) Good ideas on the black dragon and crystal ball. The crytal ball and silver crown would definitely work well for a Battle of Pelennor Fields scenario. Another good use for the new large broad sword is as Orchrist/Glamdring. (25 years ago, 17-Apr-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) 3x3x6 castle wall corner in brown. One obvious use is that if one gets so many 1/2 octagon pieces that one is at a total loss as to how to use them is that one can slightly increase the height of a tree or two (of course it only takes 18 sets (...) (25 years ago, 17-Apr-00, to lugnet.castle)

A lot of people use the SW sets to augment their Castle stuff - and I, of course, do the same. I was curious what people thought the *best* SW set was, not as a SW set, but as a purchase for your Castle stuff. "Best" could be defined however you (...) (25 years ago, 17-Apr-00, to lugnet.castle)
