wissenlander:
I know whta you mean Friday. It's a little disapointing to have nothing to go off of, so to have something makes me feel a lot better. Thanks a lot.
BAWTRM:
It looks very good though I have one remark.
11 years to build a pallisade???? Though I realise that constructing a formidable pallisade with not too many people is an ardous task I cannot see people starting a project that will only get results in eleven years while they hardly have anything to begin with.
I'd rather expect them to have started preparing in advance (by building up a store of felled trees) and build the pallisade in a relatively short time instead of breaking their backs for 11 years.
Just an observation, the timeline is very believable there are just some little things to touch up IMO. :-D
wissenlander:
I did think that maybe an 11 year time period for building a pallisade was a bit much. The more I thought about it, the more I came to realize that people would want something up fairly quickly for defensive purposes. I just wanted to show how the people were very poor and it took them a long time to construct what they needed. But maybe I did go a bit overboard with that one. I'll probably scale back the length back some. Thanks a lot.

Hadrian's Wall only took six years. Fort William Henry was built in less than a year. A simple palisade really should take less than that.
wissenlander:
Understood. But Roman legions built Hadrian's wall, not the humble peasantry who are also trying to irk out some sort of existence. :wink: But I will amend the length to probably less than a year. I like what BAWTRM said about them gathering the supplies before setting out to build it. After all it is just a pallisade. Thanks for the help.
