More work on the outline. I think this will turn out well. Any suggestions or ideas? yellow will be bridges in the lower half. Won't know what I really have to work with until I get a building finished. Might work on the keep first.
Here is an update of the plan. Yellow marks the road. The road will come down the hill and wrap around to the lower level kinda like what was suggested. Everything seen is just place holding at the moment.
Normally this wouldn't be that hard buuuut I'm doing this in survival XD. Needless to say, that is why I'm trying to plan as much as I can before I start building.
That's always an option. Because that is an arm of the U shaped bay, I had planned to put the port in the middle of the bay. Would it look awkward with the keep up on the hill yet still have fortifications near the south? I was looking to put a castle there as a means of defense because it's the mouth of the bay.
Here is some land I'm working with. Red is where I picture the wall. this is a point on the tip of a bay. The ocean is south. Yellow will be a tower/lighthouse. The purple is the issue. It's high land and I dont know if I should turn the cliff into a slope. I'm not sure here to put the keep with this area.
Thanks for the response. Yeah I started shaping the land a tad but I'm at a lose of what buildings to ad or rather how to start. I'm not sure if I should start with a a wall first or a keep first. Im worried that if I start with a wall I will limit the build. Im also worried that starting with a keep may cause issues with the rest of the build lol. Just brain storming at the moment and maybe Im over thinking the first block.
