Norland Patch 4 Notes- April 2, 2025
Gameplay
- Chancellery reform
- The book “Economical Construction” is available from the start.
- AI bride becomes a puppet of one of her parents after marriage if she is under 24 years old.
- The resource requirements for building the Chancellery have been changed to 30 wood and 5 iron.
- Day patrols is now in priority for warriors.
- The relationship threshold for surprise attacks on the player by AI is now always -50, regardless of whether the AI king is ambitious.
- The cost of one wall section has been reduced from 14 to 7 wood.
- Beggars will no longer attack if reinforcements from AI are heading to the player’s city or already in the city.
- Starting from day 5, a marauder squad will periodically travel from one mountain point to another on the global map. They can be attacked, and if victorious, the player will receive a good thought from the Matriarch.
- A new action in the Bishop’s menu – “Bishop’s Reward.”
- New advice “Mortal Enemy.”
- When attacking a squad, the nearest archers will engage only if the number of enemies exceeds the number of defenders in close combat, and a specific enemy will target the archer.
- The attack order will be redirected to the nearest enemy soldier from the same squad when the fight begins. Thus, a squad attacking archers in the back rows will engage soldiers from the front rows instead.
- AI squads will no longer change their attack target between archers who are firing at them if all those archers are from the same squad.
Fixes
- The “requires inspector” notification will no longer account for scaffolding.
- Children are not considered in the Lords’ Rivalry advice (flag on top left).

- Changed the algorithm for distributing knowledge to cities on the global map.
- Geographical labels on the global map will appear when zooming out further.

- The hall can now be relocated again.
- Fixed a bug where characters could come to the local map with weapons and equipment they shouldn’t have during long gameplay.

- Fixed a bug where mood dynamics were incorrectly displayed in the statistics menu (up/down arrows).
- A bandit squad in the tutorial will no longer attack the player’s squad by itself, blocking the tutorial progression.
- Fixed the number of rings in the hint from the thought of gifting rings to the king.
- After the game pauses due to the start of an enemy squad’s attack, subsequent attacks from other squads will not pause the game again.
- Fixed a bug where rings were not returned when changing the sermon.
- If a lord dies of old age or cannot walk soon, they will not be available as order executors.

- Lords now only play dice in the hall, and only if they are not far from it.
- If the AI has been suddenly attacked by the player and relations with the player are <= -50, the AI will no longer leave 30% of its troops at home when attacking the player’s city.
