Manor Lords burgage plot under construction

Working outhow to upgrade burgage plotsinManor Lordsis one of the most confusing steps in establishing your first medieval township. If you hadn’t worked it out already,burgage plots are important; they not only provide shelter for your peasantry, but they give access to a variety of item-producing workshops—once you upgrade them, that is.

You’ll need to construct certain buildings and provide a variety of goods on the marketplace before you can set the upgrade process in motion, and that means building up your infrastructure. Once your burgage plots are upgraded, you’ll get extra regional wealth from them each month, plus access to the higher level workshops that produce weapons, clothing, plus bread and ale.

When your burgage plot hits level two, you’ll notice that the list of required amenities and market supply for upgrade has changed. Here’s what you’ll now need to provide:

The three hardest things to do here are supply ale to your tavern, upgrade your church, and supply shoes, clothes, or cloaks. For the tavern, you can eithermake aleyourself, or you can simply buy it throughtrade. Either way, I’d make sure to have the materials ready to upgrade your plots when the ale arrives so you don’t have to keep supplying it.

This is the simplest method, but if you’re growing lots of flax and turning it into linen, you could make the weaver’s workshop instead of the cobbler to produce clothes. When you’re ready, it’ll cost you 25 regional wealth, four timber, eight planks, and four clay tiles. It’s quite expensive but, on the plus side, this is currently the max level of burgage plot you can build.
