Motte & Bailey
Motte and Bailey is the first to come it had a keep (the tower on top) so the main defence was the moat and the hill the moat is filled with water (the water is from the rain) and the hill (for upper ground advantages) also 1 entrance so they can mange who comes in and out very useful 1 last thing very easy to get water But the bad things are that the walls are flammable and also theirs 1 entrance so if the bridge is destroyed then their trapped climb over the fence can't get a across because the moats in the way also is compacted area so if there's a fire there trapped
Over all I rate it 3/10

Squared stone keep
So William thought that the motte and bailey wasn't good enough and the enemy's weapons were growing stronger
so William Upgraded to the Squared stone keep the good things are that its has the high ground but also the flat roof to put weapons on to fire a far at enemies small windows so archers can't have a easy time shoot thought them also 1 entrance managing who comes in and out also a lot more space in and probably out and can't set on fire But the bad things even though it's large if and enemy gets in it's not hard attack everyone since the stairs area is small and super compacted killing and not many rooms to run so maybe a more complex castle but not that complex
I rate overall 6/10

Concentric Castle
Time to say goodbye to William his son is now king and needs to make changes to the castles to make them strong and defensive as much as possible so he built the Concentric Castle around 3 walls total just to get to the main target the good things are that they were traps above if you had taken the easy road and with 3 walls get passed isn't easy getting passed soldiers scattered around the walls also the towers were archers can shoot arrows and see everything contained within the walls the bad thing is that the giant weakness is catapults and maybe battering rams can just knock down through them walls
I rate overall 7/10

Clover Leaf Castle
In the late middle Ages this is the last of them the clover leaf castle the good things still ahs the high ground and also has rounded walls so cannonballs reflect of the wall and there solid to most attacks and most is by the see so can attack the ships coming also rich may also buy as a holiday house (maybe) but can hold a far bit of archers and soldiers to defend
