Practice castle

[Ascension]

Here's where I'm at right now. Put in some basic rooms (tables, beds, etc) for the staff. Put in a bunch of lights for torches and fireplaces. Toilets have me all messed up so I might have to take out a room here n there for the upper level toilets. Either I'm going to have a lot of empty rooms or else I need to come up with some ideas as to what to put in them or knock down some walls. Since this is the first floor, where mostly staff live and work, I don't want music rooms or studies all over the place...I'm thinking mainly parlour rooms, shrug.

Is the idea to have running water(or magic)? If not, then have all the garter robes against the outside wall and inset into the building with a 1-2 foot cavity between the room wall and the outer wall. This provides plenty of space for the upper chutes and allows for a single outlet per set of rooms.

At first I have to say... wow! This map is brilliant. I love it. Ah and btw thx for the short tut on making trees.

Now I also have some ideas to fill the spare rooms:
Depedning on whether you this is supposed to be a medieval, modern or fantasy castle you might want to add a chapel for the stuff. The stuff might even be socially divided so there may be some rooms for lower servants (e.g. stableman, maidservants etc.) and some rooms, maybe in the other wing for higher servants (e.g. scribes, scholars etc.)
maybe you want to add some storing rooms next to the kitchen or even have several kitchens (as they often divided the kitchen into several rooms in the middle ages, so they had a bakery, a soup kitchen, a cookshop etc.).

Only suggestions of an unworthy, as always

Good ideas there, guys, thanks. I had forgotten about the chapel and storage is a great idea. The chutes idea has some promise but means I'll have to rework a bunch...nothing new there since I'm reworking everything little by little. Might have to work a standard barracks in instead of what I was planning (fat pampered guards) but maybe I can put the fat pampered captains on an upper level.

It's looking really great, Ascension. I'm loving watch this one grow and I'm sure the end product will really be worth all the effort you are putting into it.
