Very nice! gonna defiantly try it later!

You, my good sir, are lovey.

@Ethan: I might be there. I'm an honorary member in a few clans, but I don't do well with acronyms so I don't really keep track of them.  My standing policy is that I don't join clans since I find that working alone is more challenging, rewarding, and streamlines the process of creating a build, but if someone asks me to join I'll accept Honorary Member status.

@ryanb31394: I build a lot more than I play on Blockland so I don't know how to answer your first question, but I encourage you to download the save and see for yourself! If it indeed doesn't stand up to a zombie attack then feel free to modify it until it does, I'm just providing people with groundwork that they can build upon and edit to their personal tastes.  Also, IRL when castles were under siege hoardings were constructed on the walls to provide the defenders with cover.

@Radial543: You can always change that yourself if you download it, I just thought that the yellow for straw kept this more along the lines of LEGO's old Castle sets and provided some much needed color contrast to the build.

They look great, but are they practical? I'm alot about practicality instead of ONLY good building structure. For instance how well would this hold up against a zombie attack that can destroy bricks? Not very well more that likely. Also, IRL (I know it isn't real life, but still) those houses on top of the wall would be an easy target for a fire arrow.
I made a castle back in V8. The wall was kinda plain because I had made it like 2 months after I started playing, but the zombies very rarely got inside.There were two castle wall 'levels' 2 stories each (able to walk inside) In btween the two defense levels there are a few pheasant houses and inside the inner wall is the castle complete with garden and (shallow) moat. 50k bricks over all. xP
Who gives a stuff if it's zombie proof? It's not like zombies randomly attack a server.

Because if it can't protect against zombies it can't protect against almost anything. Castle walls are fortification. They were created to keep people out and protect the people inside. I just used the zombie mod as an example. If something can easily get through the castle wall then it is useless.

If something is built to look good it doesn't have to be really defense oriented

Yes, but castle walls are defence orinented. That is what they are for. :/

I really don't break any rules. Also, in this thread I am just saying that castle walls are you for defence and that is pretty much it. Skinny wall = Useless.

Theres nothing to defend you idiot. Barbarians don't bust in through the Bedroom windows and pillage villages. Its a game for building, and this is for if you want to build a castle.

Lol, jk. Anyway, I'm an idiot? Excuse me for apparently being the only one smart enough to understand what a castle is made for. If you are going to build a castle, build it right dipstuff.

Its a BUILDING GAME! There is no need for defense, there is nothing that is going to attack it. Its for fun. Its not our problem that you're the only one dumb enough to not understand what castles in Blockland are made for.

Instruction 2. Move piece one, next to connecter, that is 60 feet tall....


MOM HALP!
