Manor Lords is a realistic city-builder game with many realistic references that have featured medieval-age settlements. Fire is one of the game's realistic weather threats, capable of destroying an entire settlement in an instant.

Putting in several hours of effort to create your settlement just to see it all succumb to a devastating fire is one of the most frustrating ways to see your settlement perish in Manor Lords. However, with a few basic procedures and safeguards, you may easily protect the settlement from the ravages of a terrible fire.

While two of Manor Lords' scenarios end when you build a large town, you'll need to accomplish much more if you want to win "Restoring the Peace."

How Fire Starts in Manor Lords

A fire might start for a variety of causes, including thunderstorms or raiders setting your structures on fire. A lightning strike is one of the natural risks that you will encounter in Manor Lords. A fire can happen at any time during a lightning storm, and you never know when it will start or how to put it out.

Raiders invading your village or opposing forces attempting to invade your territory may try to set fire to your buildings. Depending on your scenario settings, this might occur during the first year or a few years after beginning your town.

How to Put Out Fire

Unfortunately, t here’s no way to put out the fire in Manor Lords manually, and you will mostly have to rely on your villagers to be as fast and efficient as they can. Whenever a fire starts in your territory, the villagers will rush to the well to gather enough water and try for themselves to stop the fire.

To guarantee that the fire is extinguished promptly, and before it causes significant damage, multiple wells should be built throughout the village. This allows the residents to readily take water from the local water source rather than traveling a considerable distance to put out the fire.

If a fire has already started, you can only observe as a spectator and wait for the villagers to finish the task as soon as possible. It should be remembered that once a structure has taken fire, it cannot be saved and will eventually turn into rubble.

Once the fire has subsided, you must repair each Rubble one by one as quickly as possible so that your settlement can function properly. If the Burgage Plots occupied by the villagers were damaged by fire, repair them first; otherwise, your Approval Rating may suffer substantially as a result of the homeless inhabitants.

How to Stop Fire From Starting

Unfortunately, fire is unavoidable in Manor Lords, and all players must cope with it throughout their rule. It all boils down to how well you control the fire and prevent it from spreading to adjacent structures. However, there is one way to put out fires: set the Weather Events to None in the Difficulty Settings at the start of your game.

If you've already begun your settlement, you won't be able to modify the settings in the middle of the game.

You can take certain preventive measures to ensure that the fire does not do significant harm to your village. To prevent the fire from spreading further, all structures should be built at a safe distance from one another. Furthermore, in order to prevent the invaders from causing any harm, it is recommended that an army be formed and equipped with the necessary weaponry as soon as possible. In this manner, you may deploy the army whenever the raider attack begins, preventing the invaders from causing damage to the residents.

If you are a king who enjoys planning ahead of time, you may ensure that your resources are always fully supplied. So that if a fire breaks out, you can repair all of the Rubbles as quickly as possible.
