Great Video, some Additions: - I would place the market earlier - cost you nothing and helps with approval. - Set someone to work in the Granary and Storehouse, at least briefly, to prevent your starting resources from getting damaged in the rain. You can remove them again, after they hauled everything in. - Also you have enough Lumber to start on the houses from the beginning so you should make 50% Approval when you hit April. - No need to invest in food and firewood so early, you have 4 months of supply and your hunters will drain the local wildlife faster than it can replenish anyways. - Those massive Plots, kind of a waste, at least if you are planning to do some farming later. Reason is, those families will take quite some time in the vegetable garden in spring - same time when you need their workforce elsewhere - in that case it is better to go for some chicken coops. Remember: For everything except Vegetable and Orchards, size of the Plot does not matter, as long as it can fit an artisan extension. - Do more scouting at the beginning: Where are the aquifers, how fertile is the land so you can plan if you want to do Farming or rely on other means of food production. - If you forgot your woodcutters camp: You can cancel another building / demolish it if already build and you will get your logs back. - Way to early for the church. Better to get someone to collect some berries, food variety is enough to get over 50% for levle one plots. Only for levle two is the church required.

[@haste921]

correct me if im wrong, but i believe the woodcutters camp should also be placed by a treeline to max efficiency.

[@kaneherrmann9155]

I agree approval rating over 50 before the end of April. Getting new families in is more important and can be done by focusing on food variety housing and wood. Storehouse up grade is only done when the space is required.

[@jytwby]

I would add when making homes, always make sure they have the extra housing slot. This is because food consumption is not determined by the amount of families but by the amount of burgages you have

[@user-gs5wm2tq8u]

Use berries straight away together with carrots and hunters to create food happiness from the beginning. Make sure to upgrade the tents to prevent unhappiness in the first period before your houses are finished. Chicken and goats need only minimum plot size.

[@TFOLLT]

plus, always keep one family unoccupied. This guy's assigning all his families - great, no one to guide the oxes to move logs to your saw mill. Not the best guide of manor lords imo, tho it was entertaining to watch.

[@jimbobua4696]

Don't upgrade tents. These count as actual homes and you will need to destroy them if you want people to move to real houses

[@user-gs5wm2tq8u]

@@jimbobua4696 yes. But for 2(?) trees you are protected from immediate minus approval. So depending on difficulty you can buy yourself some time before you get into minus, which would cost you several months of new families coming in.

[@user-gs5wm2tq8u]

If I get a family one month earlier I'm happy to pay 2 trees for that (also I think you get the resources back anyways after destroying tents)

[@StefanInOz]

@@TFOLLT You'll only need unoccupied families to build. You can clearly see at around 9:19 minutes into this video that both oxen are moving logs around although there are no unoccupied families. I'm following TactiCat for close to two years now and he's one of the few people I came across so far (and I'm watching a lot of videos), who dives deep into the mechanics of games and when he realises that he's made a mistake or it's pointed out to him, he'll not only admits it but apologises in one of his next videos, after he found out how it works correctly and then he lets everyone else know. I say his knowledge is profound and accurate and that makes him one of the best content creators on YT.

[@ofcl.faculty]

That's how I start my village: • Instantly place a Granary and Storehouse to prevent supplies from getting bad • Hunting camp and Forage Hut to start food production and get leather • Logging camp, put 2-3 families until 10-12 Timber • 5 Burage Plots and Well to stop homelessness and grant water access (Forage Huts smallest possible extension slot) • Woodcutter's Lodge and Sawpit for Fire Wood and Planks • First 2 Planks to upgrade Hitching Post into a small Stable. Order another Ox for 20g • 3 Marketplaces infront of the Granary and Storehouse (The families working in there should own the market stall) • Build a Trading Post, Tannery and another 5 Forage Huts with your next 18 Timber. (You can build the Forage Huts adjecent to the others without any road connected) • Sell Planks and Leather at the Trading Post, Skill into Trade Logistics and Establish trade Routes for both asap • Use the wealth to build Goat Sheds (around 20) for even more Leather • Build a Church and start Upgrading 2 Forage Huts to Level 2 (Always upgrade the ones closest to the market) • In those Extensions build a Fletcher's Workshop, establish Trade Routes and start selling warbows • Brewery Extension for the other Level 2 • Build a Tavern and Malthouse, start establish Trade Route importing malt • Build Forage Huts with Vegetable Garden (7 slot long) and Chicken Coops in Short Extensions From there I can decide my future develepment skills (if my area has farming potential or Rich deposits) and set policies acordingly

[@BelegCuthali0n]

I was wondering why you were building so many Forage Huts (those are for gathering berries), but then I realised that with the exception of the 2nd line you meant to say Burgage Plots 😂😂 Makes a lot more sense now 😉

[@ofcl.faculty]

@@BelegCuthali0n Oh yeah my bad 😅

[@sargerasa]

I upgrade the homeless tents into a camp (1 log but you get it back), this way the popularity doesn't dip and you never get below 50% and get families in faster. Love your idea of opening with trade of planks, great idea, haven't thought of that. Thanks for the video my man

[@jferrante831]

In addition to these things, ive found on my last couple restarts, that with 5 starting bandit camps if you get an early manor you can take your 5 retinue and militia out during the first winter, farm the camps and finish winter with 18-22 retinue (depending on losses) and enough influence to claim whatever region best supports your main.

[@TacticatGaming]

A trick a viewer taught me is take out one camp and then use that money to hire a cheap merc company to take the others out - pays for itself

[@jferrante831]

@TacticatGaming interesting, I'll have to try that. I did lose a couple of my retinue which countered some off the payoff from doing it. With mercenaries thay don't matter if they die, you would likely save more money without having to keep part of your work force in the field. That's actually much smarter than what I was doing.

[@riisky2411]

@@jferrante831 yeah but don’t you have to pay those mercs forever or untill they bankrupt you?

[@jferrante831]

[@johnsmith-th9jj]

if you upgrade the worker camp you get 50% approval on normal difficulty which is enough to get a new settler, also each family gets 3 people instead of 2 which gives you a production boost early on

[@Mikalent]

My only change is I build the Granary along with the storehouse first. I know a lot of people try to skip that, but I've lost a lot of food because of thunderstorms in the first month, and I don't want to risk it anymore.

[@mikeatmo]

This was great, man. Concise, to the point, and not 40+ minutes long like other peoples videos. This has helped a ton. I played for 3 hours lastnight and finally got my trade down. Was banking good coin.

[@td6486]

I really like how you built your plots for the homes, I think it's an effective way to build 6 homes and have vegetables. I'll start implementing this in my game too

[@jamoblair7245]

I think those large back yards benefit veggie gardens and apple orchards only in terms of increasing production, chicken coops are unaffected by plot size, so may as well make them with small backyards

[@eversoslightly124]

Also don’t convert double plots to artisans because I made that mistake and screwed over a save because you ‘lose’ both families in the plot, if you need fast production of a material it’s good though.

[@BeansBuilds64]

@@eversoslightly124 if you don’t have a building they are still free

[@whiterabbit5693]

Save real estate... you only need large burges for carrots and orchards.size or the block effects production amounts. Goats and chickens you dont need large blocks, only large enough to get the extension option..the size of the bock wont affect the production amounts

[@japetox]

but they only consume 1 of each where 2 houses of single blocks consume 2 of each

[@GoldenBoy.17]

@@japetox Could you explain that better? Whats the advantage of extending a plot rather than building 2 houses?

[@ernstpros]

@@GoldenBoy.17 So I assumed it is better to build separate houses, both with an extension for a production facility, rather than one block that can host two houses. In the first case, you have two production options, in the second one, only one for the same amount of population

[@osmelp2010]

Thanks to share this way to start, There is another way similar to get the first family moving in the first month, keeping the 50% and up so quickly. The secret is update the camp in the first step, then doing the same you did.

[@Swoahu]

Hey, can someone explain why it is a good idea to set the hunting limit to half the population? (seen at 3:06) Is it so the animals repopulate quickly? I've never used the hunting camp. Thanks!

I like to pause at the beginning and mentally lay out my toen plans and layout. also I like to put my market beside my store houses so it's easier and quicker for the villagers to keep it supplied

[@AfflictionAce]

Great video! Just wanted to add that you can demolish a building and get the resources back if you make a mistake and don't build the logging camp.

[@TacticatGaming]

Good tip!

[@GeorgeMasterclass]

What I generally do is go full on skin trade at the beginning. Upgrade two houses with goats producing skins, and get skins also from the hunters. Then full on sell those in my Trade House selecting 0 surplus. Skin sells more than planks, therefore you get more money faster. After I have 5 skin producing houses, I transition to leather export.

[@Torttelini1]

Something I prefer to do during spring, summer and autumn is focus on berry bushes (especially rich deposits), as these resources die out during winter. They also keep growing, so you will have constant supply flow until autumn. Animals will keep reproducing regardless of the season.

[@chriscarnes7815]

🎉I don't bother with family plot food sources I use berries and the hunting cabin,and a sawpit.Then I'll unassign where as needed while constructing and incense home size,by that point you have 2 settlement upgrades and a church built right on time,get a quick flood of settlers and build farms,and a trading post.i found farms to be much more efficient for food,plus once there fields are plowed you dont have to keep people in there untilbits harvesting season.during that time you crank out other resources,turn one house into a plot to make shields and within 3 years youll have like 3000 wealth from trading those

[@tr0mp577]

Nice video - well edited. First things I build: Storages - I don't want free stuff to spoil. Then Logging camp, then I have 2 logs left for either berry collector or first house. Is the second ox really necesary? Oh wait! you know you are too severe 🙂 Small tip: first make the road adjecent to a plot houses, make it curve a bit and it looks even better when you fill this up with houses - no straight curves in Medieval times. It is august when your approval rating goes up. I noticed you are a bit severe on oxen, but also workforce determines speed of building. With one free worker family it does not seem to matter much if you have 2 oxen, or not? This is a good starting strategy though!!

Best in first 5s of game to click the upgraded tents. This way approval rating will rise above 50% way quicker. Only costs 1 Lumber. Don't forget to destroy the tents once you can accommodate 5 families in houses as they won't move on their own.

Bigger plots produce more vegetables, it seems? Is the same true for chicken coops?

Starting hard and going to conclusion is usually best.

If you upgrade the starting tent camp thing at the start your families won't give you the negative from homelessness and as soon as you have the 5-6 houses up you can delete the camp and the families will all go to the homes so you can stay at 50% approval from the start and get family in the first month.

[@heliopkad]

how your trade works if there are no families assigned? not only trade but pretty much everything else? if i dont have a family there, it just stay at 0, nothing happens...

[@TacticatGaming]

You need at least 1 family member to move things

What is the advantage to having a house without the extra house extension like you were building?

[@TacticatGaming]

2 families working the field

A granary should be built first after the logging camp and storehouse to store the food (supplies) laying on the ground to avoid them getting destroyed by the weather .

You always go for apples Don't they take to long to start? I usually go for the sheep they give you alternative clothing and also multiply and you can sell them afterwards
