How to Get Linen in Manor Lords:

Linen is a crucial crafting material necessary for producing clothes and upgrading Burgage Plots. This guide will explain what Linen is, how to obtain it, and how to effectively utilize it within the game.

What is Linen?

Linen serves multiple purposes within Manor Lords:

• Used to Upgrade Burgage Plots: Linen is one of the clothing resource requirements for upgrading a Burgage Plot to Level 2, enabling further development and expansion of the settlement.
• Crafting Material for Clothes: At a Tailor's Workshop, Linen can be combined with Dyes to produce Clothes and Gambesons, essential for outfitting citizens and soldiers.
• Export for Regional Wealth: Excess Linen can be exported through the Trading Post, generating additional Regional Wealth for the settlement.

How to Make Linen

To produce Linen, players must follow a series of steps:

1. Build a Farm and Farmhouse: Construct a field and a farmhouse in an area with high Flax fertility. Flax is the raw material required for Linen production.
2. Plant and Harvest Flax: On the field, plant Flax as the chosen crop. Assign families to the farmhouse to facilitate the harvesting process, which takes place in September.
3. Build a Weaver's Workshop: Construct a Weaver's Workshop, preferably near the farmhouse, to convert the harvested Flax into Linen efficiently.

It is recommended to build the Weaver's Workshop close to the farmhouse to streamline the transfer and conversion of Flax into Linen.

Alternative Ways to Get Linen

If players face challenges in producing Linen through farming, alternative methods are available:

• Trade for Linen Directly: Players with surplus Regional Wealth can opt to build a Trading Post and import Linen directly. However, this method can be costly, with an import price of 14 Regional Wealth per unit of Linen.
• Trade for Flax: In regions unsuitable for Flax cultivation, players can import Flax through the Trading Post at a cost of 12 Regional Wealth per unit. The imported Flax can then be processed into Linen at the Weaver's Workshop.
