Major order crushed in under 24 hours.  :lol:
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

defending 10 planets is a hard one. Don't think we'll make it. Likely prelude to the 3rd antagonist coming in if rumours are more than just that

Habbaku

Defending 10 planets in the time they gave is basically impossible. The choice is basically which to defend at this point.

Manor Lords seems to be living up to the hype.

Honestly I'm not getting it. Why is it so special? Aren't there a million similar games out there? What does this one do different?
That said it did end up on my wishlist somehow.

From what I've seen in e.g. OPB's gameplay video, it comes with a strategic layer, i.e. you're not only building one village, but there's competing villages to interact with or land to grab from.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

There also seems to be a reasonable attempt at verosimilitude, too. I'm intrigued.

The demo was quite enjoyable. Haven't played enough to elaborate on the actual early access. 
Looks gorgeous though, and runs quite well so far.
I'm pretty sure people with more esthetic sense than I will make awesome city journals with this

For me a big factor is that it's not grid-based. I wish Cities Skylines 2 had that. :lol:
