(...) Umm.. You list several things twice - or in two categories (ie. "Countless Legends Sets" and "Guarded Inn", "Black Falcon's Fortress"). Several of those are just sets (UCS ISD and RBR) - and I can hardly count those as fitting of the bill of (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, lugnet.castle, FTX)

(...) I agree. Castle wall pieces are not nearly as universally useful as plain old bricks and plates. You can make a Castle wall piece with bricks, plates, and an arch - but it's tough to make a car or a mecha out of Castle wall pieces. Marc Nelson (...)

(...) Yeah, I can understand this. You make a good point. (...) See, this is where I scratch my head. I'm not sure what more I can do to convince people, or prove to people that we do listen.
