I must admit I'm liking the option to use an EDIFICE as a CAMP. There's up to 36cm (edifice as camp) vs up to 16cm (normal camp) to play with (maximum L+W) in 15mm. Edifice as Camp- ruling was it has to be ‘camp sized’ to do so (in the FAQs??), as there were clever ways to abuse the idea otherwise...(eg long camp with artillery in, reaching right into the board) Well that stuffs that idea then! 
So if I want to use a temple on a steep hill (EDIFICE) on my base edge as my CAMP, it has to meet normal CAMP size restrictions (up to 4BW), and then counts as GOOD GOING. Hmm, that seems a bit naff, especially the last bit - but I realise it's a consequence of the rules not being designed to work with all ideas. Otherwise, I'm back to just modelling the temple on the steep hill as an EDIFICE and having it appear randomly around the battlefield.
Or I come up with some way to model the 4BW CAMP as a steep hill like the cutaway prow of a ship, with a flat patch (GOOD GOING) at its front edge, and the rest rising up behind to an apex where the temple sits. The feature is tall and flat at the rear. That might still work.  |

No, once the camp has been taken, it counts as Bad going. Until then, it is just a camp |

OK, yes, as Stevie said: 'To me an Edifice Camp is just a fancy looking camp (albeit one that becomes bad going if sacked)'...
i.e. the camp is GOOD GOING until sacked; then it counts as BAD GOING (because it's an EDIFICE being used as a CAMP).

I think it can be done with the temple (10cm x 4.5cm) I have in mind...
Modelled on the 'prow' of a steep hill, on a base 9cm x 7cm deep. Doable. |
