Re: What do you want for the 35-year anniversary?
Slightly off-topic but I've been thinking about making a castle-design system the same way. Start with a basic keep, then add things like external walls, fortified gates, etc. as Cost Factors.

Re: What do you want for the 35-year anniversary?
Somewhere, I've got an article I never submitted to Pyramid which takes a modular approach, providing pre-built components from which to build a castle: pick some options for materials and "weight" of fortification (that is, short, narrow walls vs. high thick ones), then just buy towers and keeps from a table and y yards of curtain wall.

That's how Swedish D&D handled it. And each component had a Troop Strength which added to defending force (provided the component was fully manned).

Which is why you should never offend a witch while you're working on an article.
