About this mod

A rebalancing of buildings, economy, production, and warfare

Permissions and credits
The Unofficial Manor Lords Balance Patch
for Manor Lords version 0.7.965

The purpose of this patch is to give a comprehensive rebalance of buildings, economy, production, and warfare. This is NOT a mod that redesigns the game or any underlying systems. The key takeaways are fixing bottlenecks, encouraging production of late game goods, and making each militia feel unique and have a purpose. Passive wealth generation makes up significantly less of your regional wealth and having a steady flow of trade makes up a larger portion. This patch is intended to be played with the unofficial preset, but it is optional.

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST VERSION OF MANOR LORDS BY FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS FOUND AT THIS LINK: Manor Lords Pre Release Patch

Warfare

Spoiler:  
Show
Battles in Manor Lords currently are too long and unrealistic. The battles will last for days and too few people die. In order to fix this, I’ve increased defense, shield, and damage by a magnitude to emphasize how much more vulnerable non-armoured targets are. Archers will counter lightly armoured flanking, spearmen will counter archers, and polearms will be devastating if they get behind you. Basic militia will be generally ok at everything but specialize in nothing. It's important to note that helmets, gambesons and mail are all extremely important now. Battles are typically much shorter when the walls clash and even the victor will have more casualties.

  • Spears
    • Attack 1 to 10
  • Gambesons
    • Defense 2 to 5
  • Mail
    • Defense 10 to 15
  • Sidearm
    • Attack 2 to 13
  • Polearm
    • Attack 2 to 18
    • Armor Pierce 2 to 20
  • Small Shield
    • Defense 2 to 10
    • Shield 3 to 15
  • Large Shield
    • Defense 4 to 20
    • Shield 8 to 30
  • Helmet
    • Defense 1 to 3
  • Archer Sidearm
    • Damage 2 to 10
  • Retinue Polearm
    • Attack 5 to 20
    • Armor Pierce 2 to 24
  • Retinue Sidearm
    • Attack 3 to 15
  • Retinue Small Shield
    • Defense 3 to 5
    • Shield 3 to 10
