How to upload a custom coat of arms in Manor Lords

If you really want to feel like the lord of your own kingdom in Manor Lords, you will want to make the experience as personalized as possible. Naming your budding village is a great start, but your coat of arms is a visual representation of your kingdom that appears far more prominently. When you are starting a new game, you will have a decent selection of symbols, designs, and colors to make something cool from, but there’s far from endless freedom. You do have the ability to create any coat of arms you want, though it does take some extra work outside of the game itself. Here’s how it works.
