Manor Lordsdeveloper Greg Styczeń, aka Slavic Magic, has emerged from his keep with news of a forthcoming patch for the medieval citybuilder. It’ll add new maps, building upgrades and reworks for various economic systems.The announcement post is mostly image-based, in keeping with the classic saying that “a picture is worth a thousand words, as long as the words in question are mostly synonyms for ‘hut’, ‘mud’, ‘tree’ and ‘mountain’”. Fortunately, Styczeń threw in a few captions to light the way.Here are a couple of screens of the (currently untitled) new maps. I like those mountains.Image credit:Hooded HorseHere are a couple of the new building upgrades.Image credit:Hooded HorseAnd here’s a draft screen of a rework for ale and water distribution. “We’ve overhauled how ale and water are supplied to settlements,” Styczeńexplains. “These changes are now in closed testing and will improve the function of taverns and wells.“Image credit:Hooded HorseHe’s also making changes to how marketplaces and goods distribution work, “having tested three different systems to find an engaging, intuitive, and easy-to-understand solution”. The rework adds new distribution filters for marketplaces. Witness the hot interfacial action below.

I’m not sure how transformative this latest patch is, but the new maps seem like a substantial addition.
