Just got the Fortress set. A bit of a nitpick, but the arrowslits go the wrong way - they are wide on the outside and narrow on the inside, when the opposite should be true. This doesn't effect the product functionality at all, but it is a bit of an embarrassing mistake, and I've seen this on other map products too. Hopefully Paizo can correct this in future products.
Well I can't get it yet as the PDF is still listed as Unavailable, but a quick search on the net shows castle Hohernzollem in Germany with just that.
Slits angled wide on the outside, can't see the interior though but I bet there are other REAL castles as well that might have this feature. So not a big deal to me as long as they look good for my groups when I run em though it in games :)
Cheers, can we get the PDF fixed ASAP please Paizo?

"The interior walls behind an arrow loop are often cut away at an oblique angle so that the archer has a wide field of view and field of fire. Arrow slits come in a remarkable variety.
The narrow vertical aperture permits the archer large degrees of freedom to vary the elevation and direction of his bowshot, but makes it difficult for attackers to harm the archer since there is only a small target at which to aim."
Yes from Wiki but still makes total sense to me and that variety of styles so me thinks both might have been made/built and put to use in real castles.

I think the website team just has its hands full at the moment. You can see preview pictures for the set in this blog.
I own this set myself and have really had a blast with it. Outer Fortress is great with thick walls and arrowslits, and a front gate perfect for siege sequences. Interior is filled with labyrinthine corridors great for infiltration or making choking points in battle. Concise, thoughtful design with this one. I highly recommend it.
