 | **Add-ons** can be found in Thorps and Hamlets, as well as some larger settlements.  Lean-tos fit easily onto Creel Cottages and Simple Cottages, while the other could be added to any of the homes listed above. The full Market Garden add-on is more likely to be found in Villages, although growing Hamlets might have them as well.\\ \\ They can all be built (over time) by unskilled commoners, although all of them need some sort of investment to buy stock, plants, animals, tools etc. | {{ :consolidated:campaignsystem:economic_add-ons.png?200 |}} |
+| **The Ale House** is a very basic Tavern.  A Creel Cottage that has been developed, and now features a bar, a kitchen, a few lavs and some bunks for the owners.  It opens first thing in the morning to sell breakfasts and take-away food, then stay open until the last customers go in the evening.  It doesn't have that much to offer; just simple stews and soups, accompanied by local ales and wine, but that is enough for the locals, and keeps the business ticking over.  The owner hopes more people will come, and they can add a common room, and the other elements needed to turn it into a proper Tavern.  You are most likely to find alehouse in Hamlets and small Villages. | {{ :consolidated:campaignsystem:ale_house_cropped.png?200 |}} |
+===== Leaders =====
+Every settlement needs leadership of some sort, be it the family setup of Gurdinford, the informal, but very recognised, leadership of Thorhilda Brightstone at the quarry or something more formal.

+|This **Fortified Manor** can serve as a home for the leader of a small hinterland community, especially one close to the wilderness.  Based on the Creel Cottage, it has been upgraded and developed to support, up to, ten retainers as well as the leader and their family.  It still has simple down hearth cooking, but it also has proper lavs and a sauna for general use, as well as a private room for the leader.  Defensively it has a ten-foot-high palisade, with a guard room to keep an eye on the gate.  I would expect to find a couple warriors among the retainers, along with a couple of experts to help oversee the house and estate.  Even the commoners would be trained to some sort of weaponry. It will be home to a nature loving leader who is prepared to spend time with their retainers, perhaps a Ranger, Barbarian or low level Aristocrat. \\ \\ |{{ :consolidated:campaignsystem:small_fortified_manor_-with_decorations_-_cropped.png?200 |}} |
