Crafting Materials inManor Lordsare processed raw materials used to create clothing, food items, and military equipment. Players will always want to have as many of these materials as possible in theirStorehouse and Granaryto always be ready for anything.
While all crafting materials can be imported, building the infrastructure to make them in player-owned settlements is always the preferred stocking method. Importscost a lot of money, and while Crafting Material imports don’t require a Major Trade Route, they can quickly drain the economy and spell financial doom for a campaign if left unchecked.
