Anyone know what time period this castle is "supposed" to be for? |

If you mean this one:
Then it is European (not English) and late medieval – I'd guess about 1350 – 1450. |

Why "not English"? (The hoarding is extra…it doesn't come with the basic castle). |

The conical tiled tower roof is not an English style. So, OK, if you omit that and the hoardings like this:

I would push it back to the late 12th to 13th century. Big boom in castle building with money and ideas brought back from the Crusades. |

I agree with James, it looks a lot like the castles Edward I built in Wales to me. |
