comment List of Helpful Websites for Beginning Collectors
Hello and welcome :) Just a little note to say that this question isn't a great fit for this site. Also, you've not really defined your aim in "collecting" LEGO - is it that you want to start building your own models (MOCs), are you looking at is as an investment, or is there a particular theme that you're interested in?

comment What does EV3 stand for?
@Ambo100 I'm not sure the numbers are incremental in that way - NXT started back at "1" effectively after versions 1, 1.5 and 2.0 of Mindstorms Robotics Invention System, so the 3 really comes from the fact that it's the 3rd generation (RIS, NXT and now EV3).

Agreed about the hole statement being true initially - however our own Joubarc has had an official answer on that one

comment What would be a simple trebuchet design at the Minifigure scale?
I assume you're happy with a non-LEGO weight? Most elements are quite light unless you've got a few weight bricks lying around?

comment How do I build a curved wall?
@Chrissy See either of the other two answers - you need to use 1x1 plates and 1x2 jumpers to which will raise the tower up slightly, but will allow you to attach a few points to the baseplate - and fill the rest of the space with tiles. As for having a platform, you'd need to either have a few bricks sticking out inside the tower, or build some supporting towers inside.
