Keeps and Burhs Keeps
Players are permitted to build additional keeps (Max number of 5) which will cost 5,000

The Tier 1 Income bonus of 1,000 gold will change to 500
When the head of a household dies, the appointed heir may have the majority of those holds were built, but each son must have at least 1 hold in their possession as a result of the will.
Burhs
Burhs are fortifications mad of wood and are garrisoned by small numbers of men in order to exert control over a region
There will be three types of Burhs (small, medium and large), each will require a certain amount of men in order for them to be properly garrisoned
The garrisons will be from the personal militaries of the players that own/control them
Small Burh will require 20 men for a garrison and will offer +2 to defensive rolls (cost: 2,000 gold)
Medium Burh will require 50 men for a garrison and will offer a +4 to defensive rolls (cost: 4,000 gold)
Large Burh will require 80 men for a garrison and will offer a +6 to defensive rolls (cost: 6,000 gold)
Players may use 100 of their own men for defensive purposes (10 small burhs, 4 medium burhs, 2 large burhs or an assortment of such)
If no men are garrisoned at these forts, they will surrender automatically to any attacking army
