That was one typo down, and three to go (missing "[", missing "]", and "." where you should have ",").

It should be:

g = Flatten[Table[If[Mod[Multinomial[x, y,
          x], 2] == 1, Cuboid[1.2*{x, y, -z}], {}], {x, 0, 15}, {y, 0, 15}, {z,
          0, 15}]]
Show[Graphics3D[g]]

But the resulting plot is just a rectangular brick wall, not a triangle of any kind.
