I've never played the game but I like how all the buildings are sort of based around that tudor house, its like a standard part of it.

Out of the group, my favorite is the market.

They're not really my ideas, I copied them from the game. So I won't enter them in the CCC.
Man, don't let that stop you. I think at least 1/2 of us here have copied stuff from computer games. It's no different than copying stuff from books, or anywhere else, as long as you're not copying another Lego builder. Computer Games are too great a resource to not use. :)

WOW!!! Remarkable work, here. I was addicted to this game for awhile, and you've really captured the designs of the game. So accurate - it's scary!

Great work there, very smooth structures and reminds me alot of the good old days of the Golden Age, probably because of the choice of minifigs.


Ive played the game, though I didnt like it; like its prequel, by giving all your workers job to chop down trees and get stones, just build out towers everywere and you win, it never failed for me. I ended up removing the ability to build towers, just because they were so inbalanced.

Still, great MOC, cant wait to see some tries on the castles! :D

I noticed you took after the Western European building set. Hows about adding the Eastern European, Middle-Eastern/West Asian, and Far-Eastern/East Asian building sets?

Oh and lets not forget the Meso-American building designs found in the expansion.

Next you should build a wonder...
Oooooo that would be cool. I love your mocs look just like the originals. Maybe you should try to create accurate soldiers from the game.
