Stonetop, the steading
In Stonetop the village is a shared protagonist: it has stats, seasons, surpluses and shortages, and it grows when the players invest in it. The app tracks all of it for your table. Here’s a taste — the improvements a village can pursue.
Village improvements
| Improvement | What it brings |
|---|---|
| Additional Housing | It's getting crowded! We need more room to live. |
| Aurochs Hunting | Large herds form on the Flats in spring. The Hillfolk hunt them, but Stonetop has never learned to do so. |
| Expanded Trades | Specialization is the key to prosperity! |
| Greater Harvest | Beyond the Old Wall, the prairie grass of the Flats chokes out any crops we try to grow. |
| Harnessing the Stream | A shallow creek flows just below the town. If only it could be harnessed! |
| Herd of Horses | Imagine what we could do with a dozen fine steeds. |
| Heroic Reputation | Few have heard of Stonetop's heroes. Yet. |
| Inn | The public house offers a common room and shelter for a few horses, but it's hardly a proper inn. |
| Market | Stonetop is at most an afterthought for traders in the region. We need to change that. |
| Mill | We've got our pick of millstones. With a mill, we'd have better bread and more time for other crafts. |
| Palisade | A wall of sharpened logs, 10' tall, to keep evil at bay. |
| Raincatching | Filling the cistern takes so much work. Surely, we can do better! |
| Standing Watch | Some full-time warriors would make us all safer, no? |
| Stone Wall | No mere palisade of wood, but a mighty rampart. We have the stone, after all... |
| Township | Will this ever be more than a backwater village? |
| Weapons of War | Spears are great, but how about axes, picks, swords? |
| Well-Trained Militia | Everyone can use a spear and shield, but some hard drilling could make us a force to be reckoned with. |
Each improvement has requirements, upkeep, and consequences in play — the full detail lives in the game and in the app’s village tracker.
