► About The Game...
Manor Lords is a strategy game that allows you to experience the life of a medieval lord. Grow your starting village into a bustling city, manage resources and production chains, and expand your lands through conquest.
Manor Lords provides a gridless city-building experience with full freedom of placement and rotation. Building mechanics are motivated by the growth of real medieval towns and villages, where major trade routes and the landscape influenced how settlements shaped and developed.
• Spreading outward from a central marketplace, build your residential, commercial, and industrial districts following the natural lay of the land. Establish farms based on soil fertility, position hunting grounds according to animal populations, and ensure access to adequate resource deposits and forests to provide the raw materials needed for growth.
• Assign areas for housing and watch your residents build their homes in accordance with the historical burgage plot system. Each region will be subdivided based on your roads and the allotted space, and homes will scale accordingly.
• Build extensions behind larger homes to generate income and resources that would not otherwise be available. Homeowners don't just pay taxes - they grow vegetables, raise chickens and goats, and otherwise supply themselves and other townsfolk with essential needs beyond what your managed farms, pastures, and industries can provide.
• Guide your settlements through the unique demands and opportunities of each season, enjoying the bounty brought by spring rains and preparing for the harsh snows of winter.
From boots to barley and hides to honey, Manor Lords features a great variety of goods fitting of the era. Materials need to be transported and processed into finished products through production chains, and you must balance the basic needs of your people against the desire to produce luxury items to ensure happiness, manufacture trade goods for export, or forge arms and armor to aid in your conquests.
• Resources are littered across the map, encouraging you to expand and establish multiple specialized settlements. Extract valuable ores from your mining colonies, while villages devoted to agriculture, herding, or hunting supply the grains and meats needed to feed your growing population.
• Unchecked expansion will have a direct effect on the environment. Herds of deer will migrate away from encroaching civilization, lack of crop rotation will worsen soil fertility, and cutting down too many trees will result in deforestation.
• Sell surplus goods to traveling merchants or establish trade routes of your own. Manufacturing and exporting quality goods will provide wealth to upgrade your city, pay taxes to your liege, hire mercenaries, and unlock technologies for new industries, products, and tools.
Yours is but a small parcel of land in a vast territory, and the competing ambitions between you and neighboring lords will inevitably lead to conflict. Lead your people into battle, not as expendable units to be easily replenished, but as your beloved loyal subjects where every death is a cost worth considering.
• Train a retinue of skilled warriors to fight battles alongside the levies you raise from the town militia. At times these soldiers will be needed to crush rebellions or suppress banditry, and at other times you will lead you men into battle to conquer or defend territory. When needed, mercenaries are a costly option to bolster your ranks.
• A robust diplomacy system will allow you to communicate with other lords, using influence or threats to sway their actions. These competing lords have their own goals and will seek you out as well, and your response to their offers or insults can mean the difference between war and peace.
• Command real-time tactical battles, taking into consideration fatigue, weather conditions, and equipment. Position your troops wisely - a smaller force can defeat a larger enemy, if commanded well.
Feel the cost of battle, even in victory, as each fallen soldier represents a lost person from your city. A pyrrhic victory can spell economic doom, or a winter of rationing food and firewood.

You can upgrade the farms into pasture space it adds fence around the farm and also recovers the fertility 29:11

[@dsw1664]

My feedback. add wells. Add sheep to fallow pastures to increase fertility. Research deep mines for an unlimited amount of iron to make an insane amount of money.

So after 30:18 have we now realized you are seriously lacking in water access? because i think now is the time to give them lots more

[@harshkejriwal2485]

And also you don't need 3 forester hut instead you could have only 2
1 forester will fill all the empty space where you need the trees for asthetic purpose and the other forester can have a work area assigned where he will plant trees and the woodcutter and the logging camp and will also have the same to same work area as the forester so that all the wood cutting and growing happens in a specific area and your rest of the trees remain intact.
And once the 1st forester is done filling up the space he can also come and join the second forester.
This will help you have a continuous supply of logs and firewood without destroying the other areas.
Just keep in mind that the forsters and woodcutter and logging camp all should have the same work area

Not sure it's the right niche but I strongly recommend Schwerpunk't series on manorial warfare and society as a terrific complement to this title. Keep up with the good work! Jacques
