What Do Horses Do in Manor Lords?

Horses in Manor Lords are a type of Livestock that helps with trade. When your Merchants have Horses, they travel faster from your Trading Posts to Tradepoints located outside your region's borders. If you're planning to grow your regions through foreign trade, investing in a few Horses as well as the Trade Logistics development branch to reduce the Regional Wealth spent on Trade Routes can be a good move for you.

How Do You Use Horses in Manor Lords?

Horses need Stable Space to be kept. You can check the current Stable Space by hovering over the Horseshoe icon at the top of the screen. By default, the Livestock Trading Post provides two spaces, but you can get more by building and upgrading Hitching Posts.

Once you provide enough space and purchase the desired number of Horses, they'll automatically start working. You can also assign the Horses to the Trading Post to ensure the family there always has access to them.

How to Buy Horses?

The easiest way to get a Horse in Manor Lords is to use the Hitching Post (or Stables, if upgraded) or a regular Trading Post. Click on the building and select Order a New Horse. A Horse costs 30 Regional Wealth, and shortly after, a merchant will deliver a Horse to your city. After the merchant purchases any Livestock, they enter a 30-day cooldown period.

If you want to buy more Horses faster, using the Livestock Trading Post is also a good option. Click on the building and go to the Trade tab. Here you can select the animal (Horses, in this case) and change the Trade Rule from No Trade to Import. Choose the surplus you want and wait for merchants to deliver the Horses to the city. The Import price for Horses at the Livestock Trading Post is also 30 Regional Wealth.
