Wittenberg - Plan of Palace, grounds and gardens
The King has commissioned a folio of designs for the palace grounds and gardens, the overview page is presented here for your perusal. The new plan shows the retention of some of the formal gardens and existing lake with new landscaping in the english style...
A blog documenting the encounters between the armies of the imaginary nations of the Kingdom of Wittenberg and its neighbours (including the Kingdom of Monrovia and their allies). My inspiration being drawn from 'Charge or How to Play Wargames' by Young & Lawford and 'The Wargame' by Charles Grant.
I have a number of other period interests for wargaming (from ancients to WW2), these have their own blogs, see below.

Where are the living quarters?
Needs a fountain in the lake
DAF - they live in the garrets - the roof space
In the main palace?
Nice map
Are we to see the gardens modelled on the tabletop?
Lovely little map....the gardens seem familiar in the layout (Stourheadish perhaps?)
The state rooms, royal apartments and accommodation for visitors are in the main palace
Yes, the lake area is based on Stourhead - one of my favourite gardens to visit. I particulary like the grotto there.
Hmm maybe, I thinking about it - but requires some thought about storage of special items and garden sections (we shall see ?)
