There is no point growing loads of cabbages (or any other commodity) if you can’t get your crops to market easily or you are liable to be raided by bandits, humanoids or wild animals.

A thorp is a tiny settlement that supports 10-15 people (average 12). Most thorps are made up of a few huts surrounded by a light fence. The residents are generally small holders, who keep a few chickens and cultivate vegetables, by hand, in small fields. This provides a subsistence level of farming – with just enough food to keep people going.

It could be a wilderness domain patrolled by rangers, a traditional Barony, a city state or even a massive kingdom. It might be independent, semi-independent or part of a larger kingdom.

Well you can, but if you have people to help you, you get better results. There are three main roles and two subsidiary roles that can affect the way a Stronghold is run.

You may find a few hardy travellers and trappers here, but that is about it. While you can claim real wilderness as part of your stronghold, nobody really recognises that you own the land and it doesn't count until you do something with it. Claiming it, however, does lay down a marker of your intentions. However, unpatrolled wilderness will allow monsters, bandits and tribesmen …
