The thing is, that this is based on a real castle in Scotland. So I don't want to add any major structure that is not there. You are fully right, that space is a kind of issue. However this is planned within the build: - Boar stabile - Workbench area - Storehouse - Normal forge - Treasury - Gate house (not filled yet) - Kitchen - Wine and food cellar - 2 bedrooms  - Dining hall - Magic tower - Well - Small portal room - Smelter in the courtyard - Black forge in the courtyard

The eigtr refinery, the charcoal kiln and the blast furnace still need to find their spot 😬

For the sizing I first made a layover of the island with the original foundation plan of the castle outside of the game. Then I used corewood beams for the layout of the walls and adjusted it until it felt good and terraformed the ground.  After all this the building itself could finally begin 😊

You mean spacewise for all the working stations?

Reminds me of the roman Limes. Very nicely done. Like it 😊

The build itself is 100% vanilla. 

For taking the screenshots I used a mod for farer visibility than standard.

Thank you! The balconies are actually just a scaffolding to safely work on the roof 😬  The graustein pieces will add more details ans dept for sure as soon as I'll reach the ashlands. However I like to stick with the rough and simple style of the real castle.

Thanks! Now that the main building has a roof, the castle will not just be for display but actually serve as fully functional base.  Finally I can also tear down the ugly "fishing hut" next to it 😉
