That's exactly how I look at it, too. Another major example is the type of the light grey swords in 375 and 677: You must not use light grey swords from 10039 to "complete" a yellow castle. Unfortunately BrickLink doesn't make a difference between the hard type of swords and the soft type. Somebody who's better at English than me should make this suggestion in the BL-forums again. When I did it once it didn't prove successuful.
Well by taking into consideration the arguments: Best look, playablilty, part selections, alternative models, size and number of parts, realistic and so on this is my final 5 in the right order.
5. 6085 - nice selection of parts, great playabilty, got some nice alternative models.
4. 6081 - looks great for it's size, very realistic and a good selection of parts.
3. 6074 - this set can go to a hall of fame for it's number of alternative models alone. Great selection of parts, looks nice and realistic.
2. 6090 - The biggest castle ever - 743 parts (not including the yellow castle). Looks magnificent, great playabilty. The only downside is it's lack of good alternative models.
1. 6080 - big, great parts, great playabilty, very realistic, a few cool alternative models. Well what else I can say - Number I
P.S. For those who are intrested where 6086 in my list - it's only number 6.
I've got 6076 Dragon's Den (but that's not really a castle ) 6082 Fire Breathing fortress, 6090 Royal Knights castle and I'm about to buy 6086 Dungeon master's Castle.
I'm born in 1991, I missed the Black Monarch's line that's really a shame (because) I like them the most. I'm a real Black Monarch fan.
