I laughed out loud at this one lol that was good!

*golf clap*

Manned?

Nice! Double finger guns.

Good one!!!😂😂

Hahaha Role Playing to the max :D

kinda stupid that you lose ALL the equipment of any dudes that get killed tho, loss rate should be 50% at WORST and entirely disregarding the shit you'd be looting from fallen enemies too

emergent convergence.

Not sure if you noticed, but my guides take literal days to produce - this one took about 30 hours to make between the testing, recording, tweaking the build order and editing. The previous guide I made also took around 30 hours to make. There's no way I could get these out at a reasonable rate if I waited until the game launched sure to how much work goes into them.

@@Strat-Guides thank you for you work man

That is because he ruins his fun to make sure people like you could feel accomplished.

@@Strat-Guides thanks, you're the man !

It has early access...

Haha nice! I'm glad to know my title and thumbnail are officially NOT clickbait and a true gamer grandma understood the guide :D Good luck on your campaign!

I’m a Grandma too . I’m not too bad on the city building but I need a lot of advice for fighting the bandits so this has been helpful

I am also a grandma, i am glad to finally see other grandma gamers like me. I have played this game a few times and failed so this video is great and this game is fun to play.

I’m a Grandpa. You showed me how the game goes, so I bought it and am about to try it out.

Lol!

I just tested it, and this is an awesome hint. :)

The building I love to use to force the move is the Corpse Pit. It costs nothing and is tiny so it can be removed easily once it's not needed.

Yeah that's a great point! They are pretty much free buildings too at a single timber, so it's a no-brainer to put several.

Limiting the work area will fix that. I use the logging camp to clear the way for fertile land.

Thank you! I appreciate the kind words :)

Thanks Flesson! I appreciate your help with editing as well :)

how are you guys playing this game its not even out yet

@@serelithmodeus3373 they gave earlier access to content creators and media. Much cheaper than paying for advertisement

@@Flesson19 Love your Bannerlord guides Flesson. Hopefully you will have some Manor Lords guides.

@@jeffreypellet5918 already have 1 guide and 1 if you should buy manor lords video up

Thank you, I appreciate that!

I'm glad to hear that! Thanks for watching :)

Hey, Nana.

Me too

Oh no! I should have put a disclaimer that I'm not responsible for cardiac arrest during the guide :P

Thanks! Grandma loves hee reading materials so I decided to add the text to go with this one - hopefully that helps a bit more

Nice job!! Good luck on the rest of your campaign :)

Thanks for watching! Yeah I spent about 20 hours or so doing trial runs to see what aspects of the game I can cut out. There are so many options that I didn't want to overwhelm a new player, so this is mostly the bare necessities :) good luck on your run when you start!!

Glad it was helpful!

I'm happy to hear that! It's like getting the food-critic thumbs up at a restaurant - you're a connoisseur of gaming content :D

@@Strat-Guides Thank you!

Thanks! Glad this was helpful

Thanks for watching! I'm glad this was helpful :D

Thank you, I'm glad this was helpful!

He does good work hey

Thank you for noticing! Hopefully this is helpful in a few days :)

Glad you like them!

Glad I could help!

I'm happy to hear that! Thanks for watching :)

Glad I could help!

I'm happy to hear the video was helpful!! Hope you're enjoying the game so far :)

Thanks!! I think it's called being too dumb to know better lol I work too much :p

Haha no, thank you. I found your channel when I was playing bannerlord and binged it like crazy. Looking forward to binging some more now that I bought Manor Lords!

I'm happy to hear this video has helped! It's a lot more complex than it seems (or at least for me it was). Even after 300+ hours, I'm still figuring out how some of the mechanics work. Good luck on your next campaign!

@@Strat-Guides I admit that I have combat turned off. I don't like combat in any game and I'm definitely not ready with this one. I do have 176 villagers and 57 homes, no one is going hungry. So that's something I suppose. I chose double berries for one of my perks(?) and that let me make trade money. But your choices seem to make better sense. Today's challenge has been to get my sawpit rebuilt because I need planks to do my bee aviary. I moved the pit made it highest priority and it's sat for 6 months without being built. I even turned off construction on everything else and they are still ignoring it. I assume there are some bugs like that that will get ironed out evening. I loved playing Banished and this reminds me of that but with much better graphics.

Nah, my town is all curvy and I made the houses do a circle around the market stalls and water supply, it worked out great.

Dont forget the housing lots. Let's make those as tight and square as possible 😁

No shame in it - it took me about 30 hours to get to the point at the end of this guide, but still had another 100+ hours to learn everything so it just cuts the worst part of the learning curve and opens up SO many more things to explore still :)

The main reason is that's more of an advanced strategy to pull off. They are amazing units, but not always easy to get the cash to afford them. Going the militia route made the most sense because you get the weapons for free and ties in nicely with the population growth (20 men at 10 plots).

A manor requires 2 families as well as servants. Early game you might not be able to lose 2 families I agree though the retinue is much more efficient than the militia for cleaning bandit camps

Yes!! Notion is such an amazing tool :D

She would reward me with salt water taffy candy for my efforts :D

You're 100% right - I made a video about that recently actually and corrected the mistake I made in this one :) it's not a big deal for this beginner town, but if you want to get to 50 plots or higher then it could become an issue. Thanks for watching!!

@Strat-Guides awesome thanks Strat. I just saw that vid pop up in my feed so will check it out. You have earned my subscription. I love these guides.

Thanks for watching! I've got a ton of notion database for Manor Lords already posted - production Numbers are out and I'm working on farming outputs, plowing and harvesting times etc.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Glad to hear that! Hope you're enjoying it so far :)

Glad I could help!

Glad to hear this was helpful!

Glad it was helpful! I'm working on another big video covering all the topics I've done testing and experiments on coming soon for more advanced stuff

Glad it was helpful!

Yeah lack of storage is killed! Try to get large storehouse and granary as you fill up and it will make a huge difference. Storehouse only needs planks and timber, granary also needs stone, but granary is always last to fill up anyways so it's not as much of a rush.

Glad it was helpful!

Glad I could help!

Thanks! I've got a few more huge guides coming soon

this guy makes THE BEST guides i've seen. people learn differently but the way he provides information seems to absorb into my brain wrinkles nicely.

Thanks for watching!

Thank you for the support!! I really appreciate that :D

Glad it was helpful!

Glad it helped!

Thanks! Yeah this one took me a while to get out, but hopefully it will help come Friday

@@Strat-Guides definitely will! It's on my wishlist (and on several million other people). Think you will get a lot of views on this video after Friday! By the way, that checklist in the video, is that from the game or one you made yourself? 😄 Looked very useful as a "recipe" for growing your town

@@Ruberg89 I made the checklist myself through a program I use all the time called notion. You'll see another video from me soon using notion where I tested the production rates for all buildings, extensions and farming fertility.

he is a lucky boy! did you do the paid or just sub so his videos pop up more often? You must be very special

Thank you, I appreciate that! When I first started making videos, I used to think "how could people listen to me, I sound so annoying" lol I've gotten a little more used to it, but I guess it's normal to not like your own voice at first. Haha yeah, same for OCD too! Everything can fit nice and neatly :)

@@Strat-Guides I was thinking you might have some form of diagnosis (that's one of my special abilities. I can tell things like that) I prefer people on the spectrum or people with a nuero diverse brain for sure. I like the structured way you went through everything. I'm a former youtuber myself. I hated my voice at first

Haha nice! I'm glad these are helping :D

Glad to hear that! Good luck with your real run :D

Thanks, I appreciate that! I spent well over 10 hours doing his run myself and taking out as much as I could to simplify things and this was the end result. It's also the first time I've used a checklist to go along with it, not sure if that as helpful or not? Thanks again for watching!

@@Strat-Guides The checklist is really nice! Definitely would recommend any new player to start here and follow the checklist at least once. Would have made learning the game a lot easier if I saw it sooner. This game is pretty different from anything else I've played. In a lot of ways it's exactly what I've always wanted from a strategy/city game. But some things about it are kind of weird and hard to get to grips with. And of course some things are probably just unfinished. The only thing I don't really like is how the markets work. I wish that when we built a marketplace, we could choose how many of each stall it has, and which families run the stalls out of which building. I just don't really understand it. I've had a family in the sawpit running a food stall, and had no idea why they were doing that. I thought they had to be working in a building that held food in order to run a food stall! 🤯

@@neofromthewarnerbrothersic145 I'm still not 100% why they get to start stalls either but it's pretty easy to boot them lol you can just go to the sawpit people tab and reassign them to the storehouse or granary with the reassign button. Thanks for the kind words!

Wise lady :D
