Burgage plot

2025-12-30T12:05:32Z

76561198045386223: overhaul & update to 0.8.050

<languages/>

<translate>

'''Burgage plots''' provide living spaces and are one of the primary buildings in Manor Lords. Burgage plots use the flexible plots system and require two [[{{tl}}Resources#Construction|timber]] per building. A burgage plot can then be equipped with a single extension. A variety of extensions exist that produce either food or resources. Burgage plots are a crucial part of increasing [[{{tl}}settlement level|settlement level]].


== Use ==
Burgage plots are the only permanent source of housing in the game, with the standard house having one living space. Each living space can hold one [[{{tl}}family|family]], comprised of three people. They require two timber to place and are flexible. This allows multiple plots to be placed at once and for different shapes to be created.


Each burgage plot requires {{icon|fuel}} 1 fuel per month for heating. Each month a resident will pick that fuel up from a nearby [[{{tl}}marketplace|marketplace]].


Burgage plots are an integral part of the [[{{tl}}settlement level|settlement level]] system, with them being required for level increase. Each settlement level requires a certain amount burgage plots to reach.

== Construction ==
When constructing a burgage plot you will see up to three symbols. Depending on the plot size.
* {{icon|symbol main house}} Indicates the main living building of the plot.
* {{icon|symbol extra living space}} Indicates the possibility of upgrading this plot with an additional living space.
* {{icon|symbol backyard}} Indicates the possibility of adding a backyard extension. In the tooltip is shown the size of that backyard if it is bigger, than the standard size (average planting cost).
Every newly build burgage plot will be at level 1. To upgrade it, you need to fulfill its requirements.

== Burgage Requirements ==
Each burgage plot has requirements depending on the plot level. Fulfilled requirements provide [[{{tl}}approval|approval]]. Depending on game difficulty unfulfilled requirements decrease approval.

In order to upgrade a burgage plot, you first have to fulfill all burgage requirements.

Burgage Requirements are separated into four groups, each with sub groups.
* Food
** Foraged goods
** Meats
** Fishes
** Vegetables
** Fruits
** Grains
** Animal produce
* Commodities
** Fuels
** Garments
** Footwear
* Amenities
** Church access
** Beverage
** Water access

== Upgrades ==
Burgage plots can be upgraded in three different ways.
# Extra living space
# Burgage level
# Backyard extension

=== Extra Living Space ===
When the burgage plot is wide enough, it is possible to build an additional living space on the same plot. It increases the number of families living there by +1 (+2 at lvl 3). This extra living space costs {{icon|timber}} 2 timber to construct.

=== Burgage Level ===
Upon meeting all requirements for the current level, burgage plots can be upgraded, up to level three. Upgrading costs resources and/or regional wealth. Increased levels contributes to the player's progress on settlement level and overall increases the functionality of the burgage plot.

=== Backyard Extensions ===
[[File:backyard tiers.png|thumb|right|Backyard Tiers]]If a burgage plot has enough space at the back, it can support a backyard extension, which adds extra functionality to the building. There are two types/tiers of backyard extensions, as seen in the screenshot. If a Backyard Extension has multiple production options only one can be selected. The efficiency of some Backyard Extensions can be improved or reduced with [[Development#Development_Perks|Development Perks]] and/or [[Development#Affinity_System|Affinities]]. 
====Tier 1 Backyards====
* Allow the inhabitans to remain assignable to other jobs.
* Some provide passive yields, meaning no additional labor of the inhabitans is required.
* Can be removed at any time. 
====Tier 2 Backyards====
* Turn all inhabitans into artisans, removing them from the worker pool.
* They will work exclusively in their backyard, even if it is paused, or if there are no ressources available.
* Can switch production at any time.
* Once built, Tier 2 Backyards cannot be removed.

While planning the burgage plot, there will be a note "Average Planting Cost". That percentage number is multiplied with the base cost mentionend in the table above. When no "Average Planting Cost" appear, the base cost will be used. 2: The actual cycle time increases due to sowing, ploughing, and harvesting activities. Additionally, no field work is carried out during the winter months, although already planted vegetables will continue to grow. 3: In the years before, there will be only a reduced harvest. 4: Although Bamberg Smallholders increases the effiency of passive Backyard Extensions, they are not recommended here, as the loss of the work families outweighs the benefits. 5: The 'Weiden Hinterlanders' Perk reduces the RW cost by 20%.

The '''Family''' is the basic unit of your population management.

== General ==
All your people are organised into families, except for your retinue. Families are groups of 3 people, consisting of husband, wife and son, execpt for your 5 starting families. Those start only with husband and wife. The son will show up, as soon as the family moves into a burgage plot.

A family is considered a fix unit, meaning:
* All of them work at the same place.
* All of them live in the same place.

Your militia is formed by the husbands and sons of your families. When you rally your militias, the corresponding husbands and sons will stop their work and instead join the militia.

== Immigration ==
You gain new families through immigration. The immigration rate depends on your [[{{tl}}approval|approval]] and ranges from -3 to +3 per month. Immigration only happens, when there is available living space. For the first 12 months all settlements get an additional +1 immigration per month.

== Consumption ==
Every family consumes the following:
* {{icon|food}} 1 Food per month
* {{icon|ale}} 1 Ale every 3 months1
* {{icon|clothes}} 1 Cloth every 6 months
* {{icon|shoes}} 1 Shoe every 12 months
1: Ale only gets consumed once it is stored in a [[{{tl}}small tavern|tavern]] and a member of the corresponding family goes to said tavern.

== Housing ==
Families will automatically occupy available living space. Each family occupies 1 living space. The [[{{tl}}burgage plot|burgage plots]] are occupied in order they were build.

You cannot move a family from one burgage plot to another.

== Workplaces ==
Every family can be assigned to a [[{{tl}}building|building]]. If a family is not assigned anywhere they count as 'unassigned'. While assigned families focus on their assigned workplaces, unassigned families focus on construction work. Both can and will guide oxen.

Working priority of non artisan families:
# Construction (only if unassigned)
# [[{{tl}}burgage plot#Backyard Extensions|Backyard extension]] (vegetable garden & orchard)1
# Assigned workplace (only if assigned)
1: Only wife and son will tend the backyard. The husband will ignore any work in the backyard.

If you upgrade burgages to [[{{tl}}development#Origins|smallholdings]] even the husband will work in the backyard.

If you build a tier 2 backyard extension, all families of that burgage plot will become artisans and focus solely on their backyard.

== Sickness ==
Families can get sick. When sick, all family members are unable to perform any work. The sickness duration depends on wether you have {{icon|herbs}} available.
* without herbs: 1 day
* with herbs: 1 week

== Interface ==
Informations about families can be found in the top-bar of the user interface.
* {{icon|fam unassigned}} Displays the number of unassigned families.
* {{icon|fam assigned}} Displays the number of assigned families.
* {{icon|living space available}} Among other things it displays your total population and the distribution of your families into the three tiers.

Manor Lords is a strategy city-building game in which you play as a lord sent by the king to govern a land of great peril and promise. The game features in-depth city-building, real-time tactical battles, and complex economic and social simulations. You must balance resource management, supply and demand, trade, warfare, and take advantage of the seasons to survive through winter.


Will you prove yourself worthy of this honor? Or will you perish at the hands of bandits, and traitorous rival Lords?


This guide will help you understand the basics of the game, from its User Interface to basic operations.


Your kingdom awaits.

== User Interface == 


Understanding these top-level elements of Manor Lords is essential to effectively governing. Note that the top bar User
Interface provides information tied to the region you are currently in.

== Food/Fuel consumption == 


Families need food and fuel to survive. Every family consumes 1 food per month while every burgage plot consumes 1 fuel per month. Some workplaces consume 1 Fuel per month as well.

== Seasons == 


* {{icon|season spring}} '''Spring (Mar-May):''' Frequent raining. Fish, berries and mushroom deposits regrow
* {{icon|season summer}} '''Summer (Jun-Aug):''' Possible droughts. Berries and mushroom deposits regrow.
* {{icon|season autumn}} '''Autumn (Sep-Nov):''' Harvesting, plowing and sowing crops.
* {{icon|season spring}} '''Winter (Dec-Feb):''' Seasonal resources are gone. Lack of Fuel might cause freezing. Sheep shearing forbidden.

== Approval == 


{{main|{{tl}}approval|Approval}}
'''Approval''' depends on fulfilling burgage plot requirements. Approval is the decisive factor in the immigration rate. Immigration only happens, when there is living space available.
{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center"

== Public order ==

'''Public order''' prevents population from committing crimes or turning to banditry. If it is not at 100% there is always a chance of that happening.

Manor Lords is a strategy city-building game in which you play as a lord sent by the king to govern a land of great peril and promise. The game features in-depth city-building, real-time tactical battles, and complex economic and social simulations. You must balance resource management, supply and demand, trade, warfare, and take advantage of the seasons to survive through winter.


Will you prove yourself worthy of this honor? Or will you perish at the hands of bandits, and traitorous rival Lords?


This guide will help you understand the basics of the game, from its User Interface to basic operations. It culminates in an overview of how to survive your first year.


Your kingdom awaits.

== User Interface == 


Understanding these top-level elements of Manor Lords is essential to effectively governing. Note that the top bar User
Interface provides information tied to the region you are currently in.

[[File:UI.png|<translate> user interface</translate>]]
<translate>

# Population Overview - A glance at various factors affecting a region’s population.
## Unassigned Families - Families that do not have a specific job assignment. These families are necessary for construction and for guiding oxen in timber transport.
## Assigned Families - Families that have been assigned jobs. These families will have a primary worker, with other members supporting the primary worker.
## Living Space - How many families the current Region can support, increased by building or expanding Burgage Plots.
## Total Population - Your total Region population, broken down by different family levels.
## Approval - Controls overall Population Growth and the morale of your militia when rallied from the region. Higher approval increases the rate of families joining your settlement as long as there is space.
## Public Order - Governs the chance of crime, with low public order permanently turning citizens to banditry.
# Regional Wealth - The amount of money villagers own from the current region. It can be used to import goods and livestock, upgrade artisan spaces and add backyard extensions, or transfer to your personal treasury via a tax policy.
# Livestock - The total space for stable and pasture livestock, with an indication of unassigned livestock in parentheses. Anyone can use unassigned livestock for resource transportation.
# Supplies - The months before your food and fuel supplies run out. Specific workplaces require fuel, and home fuel consumption doubles during winter.
# Settlement Menu & Notifications- Hovering over your settlement name will bring up a tooltip of the current settlement level and the requirements to level up. Each level provides you with a Development Point that you can use to specialize your town and make it more efficient. Selecting the settlement name will bring up a menu to use Development Points, enact Policies, see a trade overview, and set Production limits.
# Total vs Surplus Goods- Total goods show all goods in the region, while surplus shows you what stock remains after resources have been reserved. Imagine you have 5 planks, and place a building that costs 5 planks to build. Your total stock remains 5, but your surplus becomes 0 since the planks are now reserved for construction.
# Goods Categories- A range of goods filtered into categories. Hover over each category to see a breakdown of each good.
# Personal Overview - A glance at your personal stats.
## Visit Mode - Toggle third-person mode and walk around your settlement.
## Treasury - Your personal money can be used for diplomacy, hiring retinues or mercenaries, and settling a new region in addition to paying the Annual Royal Tax.
## Annual Royal Tax - Amount of tax money owed to your king, paid from Treasury.
## Influence - Necessary for diplomacy and pressing claims. Influence is gained by raising the settlement level, enacting policies, conquering bandit camps, and upgrading your churches and manors.
## Kings Favor - Favor can be used for diplomatic purposes, including pressing and refuting claims.
# Seasons & Time - Seasons are deeply connected to your people’s lives and affect different jobs. Hovering over the season icon will give a tooltip explaining when seasons occur and their effect on food and agriculture. Time can be paused or accelerated based on your gameplay style. By default, pressing X accelerates time, while pressing Z decelerates, with the maximum speed currently at x12.
# Game Tools - A set of buttons to build and manage your settlement. These buttons all have hotkeys for faster interaction.
## Roads - construct roads to connect your settlement buildings. Villagers will follow these roads as they travel, depending on their job.
## Construction - This brings up all your construction options across several building types. Hovering over any building will bring up construction costs and any requirements to unlock it.
## Army - Shows any retinues you have created, including militia, retinues, and mercenaries.
## Map - This button brings you to the region map, which gives you visibility over all regions, their ownership, and any resources.
## Help - The help menu defines various mechanics and terminology throughout the game.
## Settings - Customize your game to your needs, from graphics and audio to hotkeys and accessibility.

== Supplies == 


In Manor Lords, families need Food and Fuel resources. Every family consumes 1 food per month while every Burgage Plot consumes 1 Fuel resource per month (so a duplex with two families would use 1 wood, but still need 2 food). Fuel consumption in the Winter is doubled. Additionally, some workplaces consume 1 Fuel per month as well.


Supplies in the region panel above shows how many months are left until supplies run out.

== Seasons == 


* '''Spring (Mar-May):''' Frequent raining, seasonal deposits regrow.
* '''Summer (Jun-Aug):''' Crops grow. Possible droughts.
* '''Autumn (Sep-Nov):''' Harvesting, plowing and sowing crops.
* '''Winter (Dec-Feb):''' Seasonal resources are gone. Fuel consumption is doubled and lack of Fuel resources might cause freezing. Sheep shearing forbidden.

== Approval and Public Order == 


'''Approval''' depends on the market resources variety and church level. How severely will the lack of any affect Approval depends on the new game settings. Depending on Approval, the number of families will change each month. Population can only increase if there is Living Space available.
{| class="wikitable"
! Approval !! Monthly population change
|-
| 75-100 || +2
|-
| 50-74 || +1
|-
| 25-49 || 0
|-
| 0-24% || -1
|}


'''Public Order''' prevents population from committing crimes or turning to banditry. If it is not at 100% there is always a chance of that happening.

== Policies == 


To enact Policies, you need to raise your Administration Level by building administrative buildings, like the Manor. At the moment only two policies are available, both at Administration Level 1:
* '''Hunting Grounds:''' Wild Animals on Rich Deposits breed twice as fast, as the cost of 50% reduced yields from Crops.
* '''Strict Fasting:''' Citizens skip every 5th meal. Reduces Food consumption, decreases Approval.
