Functional Castle

"The castles of olden stood high; its yellow turrets standing dramatically in the sunset as if they were one." - QuantumFyre

I never had a castle set before (I mean come on; it's gen z!) but as a kid, I would go to my Nana's house twice a year for holidays, and there would be all kinds of classic castle pieces, and I would make great kingdoms of peace and nobility, each with a castle, barracks, village, wilderness, ruin, and army.

The problem was, they couldn't do anything...

So, I made a castle with functional elements suitable for ye 21st century, with a working drawbridge and portcullis to increase playability. There be included two noble men and a steed, fighting victoriously for ye mighty kingdom of Absgothen. You can place them on the included 16x16 plate or on the turrets, for a bird's eye view of oncoming invaders.
