Rooted in the art and architecture of late 14th‑century Franconia, the game favors authenticity over clichés, using real medieval patterns to shape both visuals and mechanics - making settlements feel believable, colorful, and alive 🎨🏛️

Enjoy a gridless city‑building system with full freedom of placement and rotation: build outward from a central marketplace, let roads and terrain guide development, place farms where soil is fertile, set hunting grounds where animals roam, and locate industries near the resources and forests they need 🌲⛏️ - the landscape matters here ☼

- Residential areas follow historical burgage plots: designate housing zones and watch homes form and subdivide according to road layouts, with houses scaling to available space.
- Homes are more than tax collectors - backyard extensions let households grow vegetables, raise animals, and produce goods that complement your managed farms and industries 🍗🥖🐐
- Seasons change the rhythm of life: reap the spring bounty, prepare for harsh winters, and plan production and consumption around weather and time of year ❄️☀️

From boots and barley to hides and honey, a wide array of era‑appropriate goods must be transported and processed through layered production chains. Balance basic needs against luxury craft, export trade goods, or manufacture arms and armor to supply your armies and fill your coffers ⚒️🧵📦

- Resources are scattered across the map, pushing you to expand and create specialized settlements - mining for iron, villages for grain, pastures for meat. Choose carefully: will you secure ore for smiths or fertile land for your breadbasket?
- Expansion affects the environment: overhunting, poor crop rotation, and mass deforestation have real consequences as animals migrate, soil fertility declines, and forests thin 🌳→⛏️
- Establish trade routes, sell surpluses to merchants, and use wealth to improve homes, import scarce goods, and fund your ambitions ⭐

Your holdings exist among rival lords and roaming dangers - conflicts are inevitable. Raise militias and train a retinue of skilled warriors, or hire costly mercenaries; each decision carries economic and human cost ♜⚔️
- Command real‑time tactical battles that account for fatigue, weather, equipment, and positioning - a smaller, well‑led force can defeat a larger one.
- Every fallen soldier is a real loss to your city; victories are earned and mourned in equal measure.
