another tip: when a noble has a star on the management skill, if they level it up to 15 they get a trait that will let them run the chancellry without needing paper. This will not only make the noble an absolute taskmaster machine dishing out orders non-stop but also free up your paper to be sold or used by messengers.
Pretty sure they can do that once they have the star on management, they unlock an additional ability once they reach level 15 (if I understood it correctly)
@Thanetian Gaming I personally never put rutabaga fields on fertile farmland because the game gives you so little of land to use. The reason for this is because on basic land they have a base of 60% fertility. While rye and hop fields have a base of 40%. Rutabaga fields from what I have done on my game give ample amount of resources just on basic land especially if you have the Varns culture working on them. Rutabaga are a good source of food and drink at the start but as soon as you get rye they get quickly outshined as a cheaper alternative. I mean flavorful ale is good but I could never get enough herbs to justify making them. Plus I personally always give my peasants enough to buy both beer and flour plus a coin extra so they save. If anything I give the rutabaga and moonshine to the prisoners because that’s what those inferior people get.
@@FLiXHi no, you keep them and can sell them later if you choose. If the person who learned a book dies, then that knowledge dies with them and the book has to be read by somebody else. It's worth keeping hold of the books.
Pro tip, begin terrorizing your main cultures hated culture, after I did that I had about 28 loyalists with a pop of 64, even better when you get those pig farms out and have a Well Mannered Warrior King.
Unfortunately, in the game this is, I have quite a cosmopolitan culture so it's half the population! Good to know though for future run throughs thanks.
@@hmleao 37 days, but a previous 5 attempts (and lots of hours) at getting nowhere. It's a tough game. I wasn't even sure it was possible to win until I did my last video on it.
Yep, it's that easy! Time is finite, make savings where you can and you'll have more time for other stuff. Upping the gold just takes out some unnecessary grind.
A beginners tip that I can give is that always have 1 of the villages deliver Rutabaga to you, or have both villages deliver Rutabaga since this resource can disappear easily if you don't pay attention. I only had 1 lvl 3 iron mine and herbalist and both resource shot up to 300 without me noticing but my Rutabaga and Moonshine kept on disappearing (I have 5 Rutabaga farms) making me buy bulks of them whenever the trader come up. Another thing to note is that make sure to regularly hunt Fleshwolves since these can give you 3 meats and they always spawn in 4 or 5 number and can really help you early on, I have 3 lvl 3 Pig Farms and even then they're still not enough for meat production so I have to regularly hunt the wolves.
Actually I personally disagree, rutabaga is actually pretty available at the start. I go with wood and iron just like in the video. Both are scarce resources both especially at mid-late game. Besides rutabagas are actually pretty bad as it and moonshine give pretty bad opinions to your people. They are a good starter of basic food and drink to peasants but quickly get outshine by flour and beer when you unlock them by like day 3-5.
@@Matti133 I think it really depends on the playthrough. Sure wood and iron are both finite resources but in my current playthrough, I have 3 lvl 2 woodcutters and the trees seem to regenerate more than they're being cut, I think it's the same with the mine, I think the mines regenerate as well but I don't have any proof to back it up.
@@HenriqueRJchiki easy? Halfway through most playthroughs all my Lords are trying to kill each other, I have smallpox killing my peasants and there's usually a large band of marauders that want to burn my city to the ground!
@@ThanetianGamingTrue it’s farm from easy in terms of management however battles are easy since u can just hire as many warriors and their tax and maintenance is affordable otherwise it’s a nightmare mid to late game

Great tip thank you. I didn't know that one.

@@CarBojar Are you sure?
Been some time since I last played, so I don't know if you are talking about an updated gameplay.

I really just went on a rant about a stupid purple radish in an unfinished game, what am I doing with my life
Haha. Thanks. I've put over a day of my life into it as well.
@@ThanetianGaming "over a day of my life" lol thats rookie numbers
Fire video. Can’t wait to dive into Norland tonight. Thanks for the tips!
Thanks. Good luck...you'll need it!!!!
Never thought that someone on the internet will make me follow him because of his talking sock xD
Great content brother
The sock thanks you!
Bro i didnt know you change the villages resorces they give you. Thanks for the video!
Makes a lot of difference to late game.

You can move woodcutter to avoid travelling long distances
Good idea. It only costs a few wood to move a building too.
Thank you for the tips !

Wood and Iron, as they are the only two finite resources.

Maces are the best weapons to have, yet every other guide says spears are best hmmm
@@Filsoh Maces are good for capturing prisoners. Spears good for cheap killing. Swords are best for killing.
game still feels way too undercooked and extremely easy, I'll stick to songs of syx for now
