The maps here detail a Yenekosian Broch circa AT 0 - 50. Brochs were used both during the early times of Presson's Enclave as well as the Pressonian settlement of Vasi Andres in the west. These tall towers served as temples for followers of the Yenekos (Four Generals) and as a safe place for the community to rest. Andresians used the brochs as a safe place during attacks.
Broch builders created the towers through a method called dry-stone which did not use mortar. Surprisingly durable, many of the old, turn-of-the-age brochs still stand today (AT 1045).
This particular broch has three levels, only two of which are included in the free version.
The ground level includes an area for livestock and feed.
The second level is the broch's common room and it features a large hearth.
And the top level is the broch's apartments, most of which were reserved for the temple's priests. This level is only available to patrons of the Silver tier or higher.
A thatch roof covers the entire tower. It has small holes built into it to allow smoke from the hearth to escape. This level is only available to patrons of the Silver tier or higher.

2022-06-21 05:02:19 +0000 UTCI almost called BS, there were no stone towers in the neolithic. I thought I knew a lot about that period, especially in Britain. Before I did so, I Googled it to be sure, and damn if I wasn't wro...wro...wrong. Broches seem to have been the pinnacle of Roundhouse and hill fort architecture. Thanx DMDave. I learned something today. Something I'm putting to use in my game immediately.
