Sigh, I'm such a geek, I'm taking this castle kit very seriously.
So I have two burning questions and I was hoping that perhaps @EA_Cade or anyone else with castle kit-insight could cast some extra light on this?

1. The (missing?) arrow slits.

Below is a screenshot of the visual catalogue plus the last segment of the kit description as seen on the Sims4 blog.

Blog description, see bolded crimson:

“Your manor is also sure to be the most magnificent with gorgeous stonework and large portcullis gates that encompass the property. Relax in your lavish fortress surrounded by parapet fences, colorful stained glass, SLIM ARROW SLITS and even llama gargoyles.”

HOWEVER...according to the visual catalogue there are no arrow slits.
This is what I expect to see:

Not just arrow slits, SLIM arrow slits:

The only reason I mention this is because the item is advertised on the official Sims 4 blog. Is this an oversight or am I missing something?
For example, If that window on row 2/ 6th from the left is supposed to be one of the notorious "slim arrow slits" does it have a swatch without the ornate window details -no glass, just open? I'm a confused man indeed.

2. Curved Wall support.

Will there be curved wall support for all available Castle Estate Kit windows? I have my concerns about this since the promotional screenshots depict castles with round towers that have no windows (or arrowslits) whatsoever... which seems a tad odd in my opinion. This is a castle kit after all.


Right, that's all, that's what's keeping me awake at the moment (and so much more but I will spare everyone the details).

I have had so many wonky issues building with round walls, @CAPTAIN_NXR7 too.
I want renovate the Ruins as a castle for tourist to visit, I really want to use round walls. I'm not looking forward to the technical issues.

I really wanted flying b*ttresses in the game. It's thee biggest feature of medieval architecture. I hope they make a past and future time travel pack that includes that build object. I guess you can kind of build it now, but - it's not exactly it.
