at 12:30 Stefan uses "The Key".

Those keys are demonstrated in a couple of videos out there. But, short version, they can be used to hook into the decoration-mounting holes on the walls to pull the wall free and thus gain access to the corridor inside. How useful they are will depend on your build. But I think if you've got interior walls they'll be really helpful. I don't so I can't really say.

I recognize I'm practicing the art of thread-necromancy here, but I didn't want to start a new topic since what I'm looking for was already mentioned. I'm trying to learn how to effectively use those keys and couldn't find any reference to them in other threads or in glancing through a few videos. Can you point me toward where they're demonstrated?

hmmm I think I got 8!
4 with each GC - useful little buggers and I am bound to lose a few or my daughter will re appropriate them for 'other' tasks

Watch Elye's construction of the grand citadel. He goes the through building the tiers towers step by step. That can be confusing, since it helps to have certain walls go in certain places.

I got two keys too... I think essentially you got one per pledge level you ordered, whether or not those pledge levels need it.

I think you'll probably find the Count's Castle fairly intuitive to build. It's nice and compact.

I thought so too, but I still haven't figured out. The castle is easy, the towers, not so much. Things don't fit together well: the towers don't seem to have a large enough diameter to cover the corner gap. The pacman piece isn't 90 degrees. The stairs are too short. In part because of these issues, I don't really know how to place the floors, roofs, etc. of the towers.

I would love to see some printable directions.

I ended up with two keys and no castle walls. Go figure...?

[bernyleung]

No fair! markh3rd got an extra key!

[Vegomatic]

It is piece of wire with a short hook on the end. It came in the plastic bag with the stickers and the tote bag.

Hm I didn't see a metal key in my Counts. Not a big deal and it's possible I overlooked it.
