Architecture in the Island Colonies
« on: June 11, 2009, 07:43:50 AM »
Hey all,

I am getting ready to build some terrain for some pirate gaming and my wife, who will be helping me, asked if there much of a difference between the architecture found in the colonies of the various nations. I did not know.

So, would anybody like to answer this for me? Were there any major differences between the Spanish, British, and Dutch colonial buildings found in the Caribbean and other island colonies? If so, perhaps somebody could share some of the differences?

Thanks,

-Eli
