5 Secrets Manor Lords Does NOT Tell You 

Should be a bug?

Yeah, or there’s a bottleneck with oxen so the game intentionally does not utilise all workers

​@@rafaelroncolatoI don't think so. Other city building games work exactly the same way

I noticed, I think its just due to storage within each lil building

What do you mean by build away from market place. All the other guides say make market in Middle an wrap your towns around it

Berries and dyes are easy to get and sell as well! :)

@@AimingForGaming shoe makers make hundreds per year too best to make artisans early

It’s very strange to come to someone‘s video and talk about author in 3rd person - you can always tell me here directly anything you have in mind :) Also, I’m not playing on super easy difficulty - I play on normal difficulty. The video is targeted for regular players - for all challenges I always make separate videos with advanced tips, because this is a separate niche :) thanks for sharing your experience though, it’s very helpful and valuable! :)

@@AimingForGaming my bad, usually the author never responds so it’s just kinda standard on how I talk in comments. I would suggest saying your difficulty level because if someone wants harder difficulties they need different advice. And they might get fucked if they listen to the wrong type of advice on the wrong subject. I never played the reg difficulty so I don’t know about the variances in mechanics. Sorry if I came off a bit harsh had a rough morning, nice video though and 80% of the advice translates to higher difficulties and is good advice overall.

@aidanherfurth2285 oh I see, I hate when I don’t get a response, so I’m trying to not do so myself :( Good point with mentioning that it’s normal difficulty, I’ll think of it, thanks! :) Glad that rest of the tips work for harder difficulties :)

I wish all conversations would stay so humane and nice in the comments. I would also prefer if people didn't call everything a "secret" because its not. Its a mechanic that s not well known and understood, not a secret. The use of words is so important these days. I know the "Algorithm" reacts better on those but that only makes the "algorithm" rather mediocre and biased and i think we can do better than that. Other than that the information provided in the video is great. I kinda felt that something was off with several families in one workplace. Anyways, you both made my day with that delightful exchange of yours. Have a great day guys :)

@attaboy8422 yeah, I honestly don’t like these hooks but RU-vid is cruel and will do its best to not push the video at all if I won’t do it, and I feel really depressed when videos I spend a couple of evenings on after my primary job are getting zero views :( So I guess it’s the only way to succeed, unfortunately :(

So true!

Until it gets oversupplied and you get nothing.

@@AmraithNR right but that’s why you find another resource to alternate and when it gets over saturated switch until the price goes back to normal

Their plow pathing is awkward - they plow the field from the corners to the centre

Make a long thing strip for your farms and the ox plow will be faster than doing it by hand unless you have like 6+ families.

There’s also a glitch with building the pasture upgrade if you have an ox assigned to the farm - it will take the planks to the farmhouse over and over again and it never builds lol

Which is nice because that's how it works irl too. It's why farmland used to be divided in thin but very long strips for each family. ​@@Mr__Chicken

@@partytor11 ye at least in England, idk about other places. They did have some bigger fields as well though. But I think mostly strips yes :3

Yeah :(

It fully depends on the enemies stance, I’m not near my computer but I remember having two regiments of archers spears and sword militia against far more foot men and had the archers flank, while I had all forces do a strategic retreat. That forced most of the enemy into a “offensive push” and that opens archers up for increased damage but make sure the archers are also in fire at will/ignore friendly fire. It mowed down half the attacking forces and after they all committed to my only melee forces I routed my archers to the back but at a good enough distance to mostly only hit them from the back, lost a decent amount of my center milita since they were up against a strong retinue and heavy spears but held out long enough. Warbows are also some of the easiest weapons to make and easiest to sell for profit mid game.

They? He! Its only 1 person.

New update just dropped, now damage increased from 4 to 12

That’s true! :) but keep in mind that while your men are in militia, they don’t work as peasants, and it slows down your expansion :) I prefer mercenaries instead of:)

@@AimingForGaming I can see your point. Many on the Steam forums are extremely confused about the game because they fail to understand the basics which aren´t exactly logical, like stalls teleporting goods to any home. Once you get the grasp it´s extremely easy to be efficient from the get go, the only thing you really need to think about is whether you plan on using another region as a feeder, if you don´t the market perks are necessary in my opinion. So, whether you opt for early cash or a militia is flavor, the game gets easy regardless.

@AurioDK I absolutely agree! Regardless of chosen path, the most important thing is to enjoy the gameplay anyway :)

You should also build a storage :)

You can easily hire mercenaries by the time raiders come if you boost your economy by selling weapons early enough :) Yeah, I’m using 5 saves every game as well :)

If you only steal the loot, you won’t get free points to claim territories :) I tried shadowing as well - wealth is great but gathering points from tithe was painful :( And yeah, granary and storage workers will supply the market, you’re right! :)

@@AimingForGaming a built manor and 2 raider battles gets you enough,and if you're short all you have to do is contest when the other guy goes to claim a territory,load up on mercenaries with all that gold you got win the battle then boom you have your first territory and you'll have enough influence to claim another right after of you want

@chriscarnes1083 good point, thanks! :)

@@AimingForGaming cool thing is there's noany different ways to play,thanks for the tips

@chriscarnes1083 thanks! :) glad they are helpful! :)

I just set crop rotation and never touch them again :)

Yeah, but to get the initional personal currency, you must earn regional one first or beat bandits with militia. I pefer the first option

Selling 20 spears to hire 6 squads with spears and swords when you need them? I can’t call that ‘stupid’, but you can play as you like :)

Well good luck hoarding 600 unused waepins

My surplus of close to 100 bows with two full units of archers at the ready says otherwise

Sell on market gives u regional wealth, while arming your people to fight bandit gives you personal treasure to hire mercenaries. So yeah it’s stupid

U need wealth from the treasury to hire mersiaries not the regional wealth so selling it is usless

If you let him deal with mercenaries, you will lose points which you could get by defeating a bandit unit :)

@@AimingForGaming im lazy

@@AimingForGaming also i said 10 min i meant around 10 ingame days

@@leader_nich7998 in my games he just sends off his squads immediately as they are not getting disbanded :)

@@AimingForGaming then idk 10 ingame days is the usual time but maybe that depends on number of camps as he send them once a 2nd camp has spawned

I beat my first bandits with mercenaries :)

I build manor, then rise taxes to 50% just once and get around 30% happiness but 150+ coins to spend on army :) Then I reduce taxes to zero to stabilise happiness and set it to 10% after that :)

@@AimingForGaming i see. thanks. i always set them to zero to always make them happy. lol

@inearplays It’s fine on normal map, but I always set 5 bandit camps at the start, up to 5 bandit camps spawn rate and an enemy lord, so I have to rush mercenaries to survive :) However, after you clear all camps and add their loot to your treasury, you’ll probably have enough money to set taxes to zero forever :)

​@@inearplays you should at least have 10%

​@@inearplays keep it at 10% if you have enough money But if you are worried about happiness , just get them drunk !

It's prerelease. And it's in a better state than many AAA titles releases. In terms of difficulty, this game has ties to old-school difficulty levels, where you can actually loose the game, unlike modern titles.

@jubilantyogurt and it’s also made by one developer, not a game studio :)

One dude? Ok, then why does the game cost so much? Take a look at the game Len's Island. THAT is how you can make a game at a good price, in good pace... by "one guy".... Or is the AAA comparison just your fallback because you want to justify the gaming industry? I see the comparison as complete bonkers. I compare to something similar and good, not completely different and trash. I look for goals with my comparison, not justification of things that are bad.

@marcusjohansson668 we were talking about the gameplay and bugs, and I think that one dude made a great stuff even if we compare the game with AAA titles. I don’t understand why you are switching the topic to the game cost. If someone feels that the game is not worth the money they gave - that’s fine. For me it was good. And I played Len’s island and was even planning to make several videos about it, but got bored pretty quickly. Different strokes for different folks

@@AimingForGaming I'm not switching any topic, YOU are reponding to MY post. (On your video, yes, but It's my initial topic no?) I'm simply pointing out the reason AAA studios keep making games nobody likes. And one of the reasons are people like you, using them as templates instead of the smart thing to do, compare to what we all WANT game development to be. And demanding a crapton of money for an early access game is NOT the way. AAA games should be ignored and never talked about, nobody likes them, but as long as people keep talking about them, people will GIVE THEM MONEY and keep the spiral going. Gets fed dirt to eat: "At least we are not eating poop"... WTF kind of argument even is that?!? I gave you an example, YOU keep insisting on comparing to trash AAA games. Here are other examples (just as close to "one guy" as this game), Terraria, Factorio and Satisfatory... The reason I brought up Len's Island is because it is still in early access, release seems very close, so it was a more proper comparison. And THAT game deserves IMO every support possible.

I don’t remember combat in Banished

? :)

True, hidden mechanics are not easy to predict sometimes :)

Never played any of them I'm just winging it as I go
