Ooh i swear i saw a similar type map in a warband mod but my opinion is?? absolutely amazing but for a full on castle does look more like a castle that would defend a small region or villgage but in practical use that uphill is absolutely gonna destroy attackers
Really nice...
One comment tho - the moat/bridge connecting part on the island with the part of the mainland is very open to be shot at from the mainland... maybe some cover?...

I think that's the point. Imagine besieging this beast. You'll lose half your forces before you even get to the gate... Did someone say: human pincushions?
Edit: Oh wait, I see what you're saying @NurAbSal ... If the forces need to retreat to the main structure they can be pelted with arrows... Yeah, raised crenelated walls on the sides of the bridge would probably be best.
I´ve just realized that game is missing draw bridge but well time scale of Bannerlod is Earlier Middle Age and such nice castles were quite later But ofc there could be mod for later era.
To make it more realistic the big bridge should be atleast 1/3 less wide, also a draw brigde should be added, also a real life thing they did, that would reduce its artistical look is a "snake" or zigzag bridge that made it harder for a besieging army to bring in siege equipment and made them have to expose their flanks to archers when doing so. heres a link to a screenshot of what i mean in smaller scale: https://gyazo.com/5e0d8791eda3e5f69c8ba25c5bda151a
