Nerd! I mean cool, ya, cool. From what I currently see in the few photo's posted, I would have to agree with @CaptainDireWolf. Keep up the good work.

Maybe add some more pictures to help us see what the inside of the keep looks like or any other cool features you included? Overall looks good. Maybe add more cover (rocks or something) for the orcs to use. Otherwise it might be tough for them to make it to the keep without getting decimated.
Why the pipes connecting the broken wall? Isn't that broken? For access you could just use short man cannons. Also there is no cover on the wall? This map feels about 75% complete.

In reply to the update, I still feel the map looks incomplete. On the long wall or bridge, there is no wall to overlook as if they were defending. Iconic for the "or should I get you a box". I would still ditch the pipes and maybe add broken pieces to get across if you don't want cannons. If you have the blown up wall, then it should be blown up. All due respect, it takes away from the authenticity of what I feel you are trying to accomplish. If you want your own spin on something as iconic as this, then I would advise you to say it's inspired by helms deep and name it something else. I am particular about themed maps, because they are my specialty.
