Example Fort, Keep, and Castle

I asked Chris, Archon’s intern & player of Chrystos Salamander-Slayer, to work up some examples of structures of different sizes. I remember that this is something that had been requested here, but can’t find the thread. Here is what he came up with - note that these were probably done in v.17 if there have been relevant changes. I think having something like this in the text would be useful, and it could be much briefer if we didn’t show the work the way Chris had (an illustration and floor plan could serve the same function much more awesomely).

Very cool. What is also important for me is a drawing associated with them like arneson has in the FFC. So, I hope you guys budgeted for that in the ACKs book or in DoW.

I am pursuing a lead on some really nice schematics of fantasy buildings that I think would be great for this…

Something pinged my neurons here, and I’d just like to check my thinking. You talk about % population growth per month for each sample site. How long would that be sustained (or even sustainable) for?
Is the answer ‘as long as the total population does not exceed:
a) The maximum allowed by the value of the fortification/stronghold
b) The maximum allowed by the thresholds in ‘Limits of Growth’ (per hex)
c) The value on the growth table on page 123, at which point the % growth shifts to the appropriate level and (a), (b) and (c) continue to apply.’
If so, an underlying message is, in order to keep growing your domain, you need to make your stronghold bigger and better. Correct?

How much is this doggy in the window?

This is an iconic Motte shell keep. I will leave it up to you to decide if this is a small shell keep (small castle) or a large shell keep (medium castle).
