Manor Lords: How To Stop Bandits And Prevent Them From Stealing

Being invaded isn’t something you can exactly control, so you must know how to stop Bandits in Manor Lords. When you let them run rampant they will steal your resources, burn your village, and overall cause a lot of trouble which can make surviving the winter quite a challenge. While you can technically make it so new camps don’t spawn after a certain number, you need to do that when starting a new game by changing your difficulty options. But taking care of them is actually easier than it may appear. So here is what you do about them.

How to Defeat and Stop Bandits in Manor Lords

To defeat and prevent them from stealing you need to use your Militia (army) and destroy their camp. Make sure you pay attention to the bandit camps or tents that have been sighted. The game notifies you when a new one spawns. It can show up anywhere on the map.

1. Start by crafting weapons and armor with the help of your village’s blacksmith and armorer.
2. Next, open the Army menu by tapping the swords icon on the main screen.
3. Now, assign soldiers here.
4. Alternatively, you can also hire mercenaries to kill the Bandits. Use the cheapest Mercenaries as they should be able to get the job done.
5. Open your Map and zoom out to look for their tent.
6. Click on their camp with your Army or Mercenaries.

Your army or mercenaries will now take the fight to them. There are usually 10 or 15 of them and if you equip your army with decent weapons, taking them down shouldn’t be a trouble. Make sure you loot their camp in order to get treasury or regional wealth.

That is all for how you can stop Bandits from stealing in Manor Lords. While you are here you should also find our guides useful on how to fix the windmill not working, cure diseases, and assign workers.
