It's just as black as the stone castle shown in the forum banner. It's really the colour of dark grey, which is the colour of the material it is built from, which in turn was, wait for it... my point all along!
Castles.
are.
the colour.
of the material.
they are built from.
Castles are the colour of the material they are built from.
Seeing as stone castles already are dark grey in the game, the colour of the stone they are made from, it would require paint to make them more black. No castle was ever painted.
Don't you read a post before you reply to it?
It's not the black that bothers me. I don't want castles to be pink or purple or any other colour. Why do you kids keep asking what colour I want my castle to be? The problem is that it would require a significant amount of paint to make a castle black, or any other colour, and castles were never painted!
Do you get it now kids? Or are you going to ignore the point I'm trying to make and keep asking the same questions over and over?
It's a game alright. A medieval game, meaning that it is tries to emulate the looks of medieval times. Medieval castles were never painted. That would have cost way too much.
What animations are you talking about anyway?
That's the colour of stone. Thank you.
Wow really? You are way too picky!!!!! I agree to let you play with rainbow monkeys! Who cares about that it's black!!!!!!!!!!! Jees!! Calm down!!!!!!! If It's black It's BLACK!!!!!!!!!!!!! All I wanted to suggest is too UPGRADE THEM!!!!!!!!!! P.s You spelled COLOR Wrong every time. You spell it like this..... C.O.L.O.R = Color!

Actually, lords of castles made their castles out of whatever material was on hand. In fact they often used limestone, which can be grey, white, yellow or black in color. Also castles are meant to show the wealth of the lords living in the castles. It could be possible that they would paint their castle black just to show that they have a massive fortune and can afford to do so. It may not have happened in history, but it is plausible that it could have. I also have to point out that this game is not in real life. If a user wants their castle to look a certian way, maybe they should be able to customize the color and design of the Walls and Keep to a certian extent.
There is also a "black" castle which is real. It is in Scotland and is called Barcaldine Castle. It was built with dark color stones and was also known as the Black Castle.
I also like the idea of spikes on the walls or maybe around the moat. It might give a bonus defence against melee units who have to get to the walls first to do any damage to the defenders, while ranged units are not affected.

It isn't much of a castle... and it doesn't seem to be a really old medieval castle

who really cares about color. How about being able to customize wall color? Then a wall can be blue, red, green, yellow, and yes BLACK!

It would be cool if you could see guards walking along the tower like you can see people walking around in the actual castle.

Hey Doom I'm not against the idea, GGE can go anywhere it wants to and so long as it stays fun, idc about an update like this so again I'm not against it...
Also doom and earnis, if you're both referring to what I said about that black castle, regardless of your idea that castle is still not really an impressive, large castle, it's more of a house and it was built in the 17th century (I think) so it doesn't really look like what the castles in this game are meant to look like (I'm only talking about that example, I'm not against this idea because it may seem unrealistic if that's what you think I mean)...

hmm, maybe i can make another suggestion to the black castle idea, why not make the solders stand on top of the castle towers (or in them) and you could see them walking around the castle walls? that would be kinda cool. but still i really like the black castle idea, and maybe when the castle walls/towers get up to leval 5 they could have like big spikes on the towers, and the towers could be taller, and the walls could still be black but they have like talled spikes around them like a barrier in order to even get to teh castle, and there could be a really wide moat or something. just thinking. but yesh yesh.

i say i totaly agree with King Mc Nugget and jiwinner3! If MY castle was black, then it will surely look like a DOOM castle! i LOVE the idea! ill also say that ill add some manly yellow unicorns and rainbow monkeys to it as well. and dude, who CARES if you don't like the idea of a castle being black? what color do you want it? a weak purple? a unmaly pink? yellow with lemons? or how about all the colors in one so you won't be so picky about it and it will blind your eyeballs! and please, this is a fun little game where everyone can make their own sugestions to it, and just have fun playing it. its not supposed to be serious. so lighten up and GO KING MC NUGGETS IDEA! WOOOOOO! FOOT BALL KING DOOM YES.

I Think they should make you choose either if you want black with spikes or normal. When you upgrade them.
