Map of Harlech Castle using Kallistra
Posted: Mon Nov 10, 2014 9:45 pm
Hello Everybody
I have been busy drawing a map of Harlech castle for the siege of Harlech during the Wars of the Roses (1468) (using Kallistra). The castle was held by the Lancastrians for 7 years before it fell to the Yorkists. A siege memorialised in the song of Harlech.
I have managed to keep the round towers in a rectangular shape although the walls have had to follow the hexagons. Also I have had problems with the front Barbican - I would have liked it to been a main gate way but the alignment of the hexes prevented this and I have had to use the keep model. [It may be possible to realign the whole castle.]
Best wishes
Graham
