Castle Needed

[Gwaihir]

I'm looking for floorplans for a cool castle for the PCs to clear out, with the idea that it may become their base of operations. It can be somewhat ruined to pristine. Any ideas where I can find this?

The Map-A-Week archives at WotC?
There were quite a few castle maps, IIRC.

Although its DRM protected you can purchase the old Judges Guild Book of Castles on Drivethru RPG. They also have the villages 1&2, Islands, and Temples books. I print them up and use them all the time.

ALso Profantasy site has a download area, you will need the free viewer to print but some nice maps. www.profantasy.com

UK3 the Gauntlet

or Falcon's Peak in Dungeon Magazine

they are small scale but just enough for what you need.

Dark Furies maps are pretty top notch and I've used them.

Castle Sites, an old AD&D 2nd ed reference was great.

DMR2, Castle Guide, had some great stuff.

There are several issues of Dragon magazine with Castle layouts. Littlefang and Goldfort... man, I can't remember the third one.

Fantasy Hero and it's two companions for 4th ed Hero have all sorts of maps.

Yes check out Phineas' Maps in the Cartography Forum.
He has some great stuff including a castle or two.
