Different histories
The same first holding. A different reign.
Your fields feed the masons, your workshops consume timber and iron, and your letters cross roads watched by other rulers. Advantage is built through judgement, cooperation, and time.
Decide where labour goes
Raise stores, strengthen the wall, or prepare soldiers. You cannot do everything at once.
Choose whom to trust
A nearby banner may belong to an ally, a rival, a debtor, or the ruler preparing your next siege.
Become known by your deeds
Rank, heraldry, titles, and illustrated honours show what your house built and survived.
I The first orders
Every lord starts with a timber camp.
Paul, your village's knight, hands you the first orders: a questline for building and one for your tribe, and every finished quest pays out.
- Build follow the construction questline from the first camp
- Rally the tribe questline brings you into company
- Claim collect what each finished quest pays
II The contested world
Read the roads before you march.
Scout river crossings and forest routes, then decide which neighbour should become an ally before distance becomes a weapon.
- Scout reveal roads, holdings, and troop movement
- Parley negotiate before banners reach the wall
- March plan departures, arrivals, and support
III The realm’s events
Some fires burn only for a few days.
Events open on a timer. In Ulfberht's Forge your scouts bring back metals from a buried smithy; forge them into its lost recipes before the event ends.
- Gather the day's materials for the forge
- Craft lost recipes, three metals at a time
- Compete every event keeps its own ranking
IV The public standing
Let your standing speak first.
Rank is public. Three thrones crown the top of the realm, and the tables for tribes, warfare and honours show how every place was earned.

A public record of your reign
A reign ends. Its marks remain.
Rankings change. Your seal, diplomatic record, and earned honours remain together in the Lord’s Chronicle, where rivals and allies can read them.

I The first seal
Your house begins at the seal.
Choose a name and heraldry, then raise the holding that will carry them. Neighbours will learn both from what you build and how you behave.
