Upcoming Update Preview: Bridge Building, Overstock Systems, and More.

Hi everyone!

We’re excited to share a preview of the upcoming update for Manor Lords. This update introduces several features and improvements, including a bridge-building system, a new animation, an overstock mechanic, map selection with new maps like High Peaks and Winding River, and the ability to reorder unit cards.

These additions will be available for testing in the public beta soon, and we can’t wait to hear your feedback.

[h2]Bridge Building Tool[/h2]
A new bridge-building system will be added, utilizing the existing Road Tool to span rivers and connect key areas.




[h2]Reworked Deep Mine and Cranking Animations[/h2]
Workers now head underground to do the mining. Instead of performing their tasks on the surface, they enter the mine, work below, and bring the resources back on their way out.








[h2]Overstock Mechanic[/h2]
To keep supply smoother in larger settlements, workers will now bring extra resources preemptively—almost as if additional Burgage Plots were consuming them. For example, tavern workers may “overstock” when they sense a resource like ale is about to run out, ensuring a steady flow and reducing supply disruptions.

This change helps minimize fluctuations in resource delivery caused by logistics, particularly in large towns where managing supply chains can become challenging.







[h2]Unit Card Reordering[/h2]
You can now drag and drop unit cards to change their order, giving you more control over how your units are organized.


[h2]Map Selection and New Playable Maps[/h2]
A map selection feature is in the works, along with two new playable maps: High Peaks and Winding River.










Here is a link to the prior preview that showcases new building upgrades, the ale and water distribution rework, and the marketplace overhaul.

Manor Lords, Against The Storm, and the greatest RTS games now cheaper than ever

It's been a good year for Hooded Horse, the publisher behind Against The Storm, Cataclismo, Norland, and dozens of others. The biggest cause for celebration is no doubt Manor Lords - once the most wishlisted game on all of Steam, with each subsequent update, the early-access version attracts more players and plaudits. But there's also Breachway, the sci-fi strategy game with flashes of FTL, Workers and Resources, which hit 1.0 this year, and the Command and Conquer-inflected (except with ants, rather than people) RTS Empires of the Undergrowth. In commemoration of a bumper 2024, the studio has put all of its biggest and best city builders and strategy sims on sale, knocking some of the genres' heaviest hitters down to the lowest price ever.
