What you need to do is imagine what you want to connect the two modules
with. Does it want to be a wall? Does it want to be shops? Guard Towers?
Or whatever fits in with your imaginary scene. So you take the front gate
and the rear tower and imagine what scene you want to place them in, and
then fill the gaps in mentally, even drawing a rough sketch (it doesn't have
to be perfect), and pencilling it in, for easy changes, you should
eventually come up with something you want to have fit between the two
objects you currently have.
Then what you do is look at your parts, and decide on where you'll have to
get extra, what your budget is, etc. and the rest should at this point be
uneccessary to explain. ;)
