A good position for the siege ladder is an important aspect for how the castle should look like 

It seems that the contestants are hurrying to deliver scenes ... it's funny, the more margin time is given, the faster the deliveries.

thank you 

First time I try to make a singleplayer siege scene, so I doubt it will have much success, either way I hope that some activity will encourage other users to start making their own scenes as well.

Very early WIP:

A couple of things to note - The navmesh is a little messy - i've actually spent a long time on it. I'm not familiar with it at all but i was having some congestion issues before the bridge - so i've done what i can to stop that happening, which might make it look a little... nasty. Works fine though.
There is however a gap in the mesh before the crest in the hill that is there on purpose for that congestion issue.
I didn't mesh the whole map... i'd die from that, but everywhere that should be relevant to the siege itself is meshed - and though it won't do anything i also meshed the roads around the castle. I just kinda like watching my soldiers march along them <.<
If ya fancy it the map should be easily portable for multiplayer balance wise. Just unplug the barricade at the rear sally door and also the rear gate, and add a small ladder to the breach in the wooden wall on the cliff overlooking the sea. (Obviously also change all the entry points too <.<)

The defence location is in the centre of the courtyard, rather that right at the breach at the bridge. I find it more fun to attack that location when assaulting the castle as the player, and when defending you can always order your troops to defend wherever you like in the castle, so there's a bit of agency and player advantage there. Gives a very overrun feel which i enjoy.
I've also tried to keep the detail focused to the intended battle area to save on performance if necessary, so things get less detailed the further you veer from the fighting. Everything is kind of there to be a cool background that you can see from those locations.

Here are some glamour shots~

This is where you'll spawn as the attacker



Making your way up the hill



The castle walls and bridge ahead



The breach in the defences



Looking out from the outer courtyard toward the bridge


From the Tower over the Bridge



The inner courtyard - This is where the fighting will happen by default. If you're defending feel free to reposition your men.

The other side of the castle



The Village

I might redo this scene for the contest:

Be advised that the contest is only on unmodded Native, therefore using only Native props

Oh I didn't read the rules well, my bad 

Here's some work in progress shots of my map.
The castle itself is pretty much done, now I just got to do the AI mesh and detailing the surrounding area as well as making the attackers spawn into something more interesting.

I hope the images resize themselves because I have no idea how to do that

Here's a WIP of mine, not sure wether I'll manage to finish, but whatever

That's a good looking crane you got there. Whenever I want to put cranes I just use a mangonel but this is a pretty nice alternative!
I love it when people use small objects to make something that isn't originally in the prop list. We've all probably played the game so much we've all seen every prop hundreds of times so it's always nice to see creative ways to break the esthetics with some delicate prop placements.
