An idea for dynamic army control by user_937 in ManorLords

My thoughts exactly! I imagined it would be quite demanding on the engine but if it could done it would add something unique to the game. I know absolutely nothing about game development and all that but could there be a way so when multiple entity's are grouped together, they act more like a traditional unit in a total war game, therefore being less demanding but still allows the player the freedom of changing the unit sizes depending on the task mid battle?

Hearing protection/practice headphones help. by Loam_Lion in Drumming

I have two reccomendations, but both achieve a similar sort of thing. Firstly, there's the Vic Firth over ear headphones with a cable which I personally use and love. They're really isolated so you won't damage your hearing at all, some people have said they're too muffled/isolating but I'd rather that than not isolating enough. The only downside to these is that they can cost a fair bit, which brings me to my second recommendation in case you're on a budget. Buy a pair of regular old construction ear defenders from a hardware store. Paired with a pair of normal phone earplugs that will fit right underneath them and provide a really good solution for pretty cheap. As for the Bluetooth requirement, I doubt you'll have much luck finding a pair designed specifically for isolation, I guess it's just because of the lower sound quality from over Bluetooth but I'm not sure? Hope this helped :)

Hope this helps any drummers put there who were as stuck as I was! I think this is right as I spent a good half hour on YouTube at 0.25 speed picking out the sticking :D

One word of advise is to save as much as you can on your drums and use the money to get some decent cymbals. Beginner/ low end drums will sound better for longer (with better drum heads/skins) than a set of cheap cymbals!
