Burg Hohenstein is a base founded by DakkaDok on the 24th of January 2019. It is a castle built on top of a mountain.

The primary goal of Burg Hohenstein is to be as historically accurate as possible, using many defensive features common in real medieval castles.

Machicolations

These vertical gaps in the floor of the battlements allow defenders to hit attackers who get close to the walls with arrows and stones.
