First of all this is the link you could use for a full version because I wont show everything he has ;)









As far as you can see, there are a lot of buildings or at least building styles that are not used or have been changed in
the final version(s). One of the most interesting points in my opinion is, that there are several ideas how to get water -
but I'm still sure that in early versions of Settlers II bakers weren't using water just like in Settlers I.

Still interesting that they worked on endless maps and a map generator but both weren't in the final releases :(
