OpenLOCK Stone Bridge Released
Added 2018-01-09 20:11:46 +0000 UTCBattles on bridges are a staple of fantasy. With our stone bridge, you'll soon be having PCs tossing their enemies over the edge.
We have been hard at work on this one for a few weeks. This bridge is extremely modular, though with this release, it's only able to expand in length. A future release will let the bridge also expand in width so that rather then being a wilderness bridge over a stream or small river, it could become the bridge of a major road in a town.
The bridge has only one piece that needs to be glued, the rest is assembled with either OpenLOCK clips, magnets or both.

Both of these are solid ideas. The smaller bridge of the first release probably wouldn't do well with a bridge house, but the upcoming release this week will make it so you can expand the width of the bridge as much as you want. Thinking about it, the arch pieces don't have a top, so rather then putting the cobble top on them, it would be pretty easy to design a building that can go on them instead. As far as no walls, I didn't really think about that, that's pretty easy to solve as well. I'm working on ruined bridge pieces upcoming, I could look at adding maybe some wallless bridges for that release as well.

2018-01-16 20:53:49 +0000 UTCSuggestions (2) for a future addition would be 1) no walls, many medieval bridges didn't have them. 2) houses above on poles.
