Review for LEGO set 6074 Black Falcon's Fortress from Brickipedia
“As its predecessor, the Knight's Castle, the fortress was built on green plate-pieces rather than on flat baseplates. It also utilized hinge-bricks that allowed to open the castle. There are no stairs nor a ladder to connect the different levels. The drawbridge is manually... More raised or lowered as there is no winch unlike the earlier Knight's Castle.”
