[Bjarky]

if yes, we're gonna push those caravans through viking lands, just to tease ^^

[Akincibegi]

Tholgar I know your real question: Will there be caravans  as well, to raid? 

good point

[Polobow]

Too bad i'm not into strategus, i'm too inactive for that :/.

[Ujin]

- caravans = players
- you can either send people off with the resources,
- or set in the fiefs an auto trader (a bit like in the anno games): "sell wood for 40 gold per item, minimum storage: 200", "buy iron for 80 gold per item, maximum storage: 150", so any person coming along can buy/sell stuff to your fief
- goods slow players (aka caravans) down, so they are easy prey

Can you raid these autotraders?

[Leiknir]

The autotrader is in your fief, not moving

What stops the "caravans" from becoming the usual 1000 man army loling around the map?

Will my peasant militia fight naked or will they get free peasant gear if I dont manage to supply them with plate armor?

I bet troops also slow you down, if you want to be profitable you don't want to be much slower than what you need to be. Also, troops cost food to mantain, which would reduce your profit.

Is that photoshopped?

I looked at it again and realized my stupidity. o.O

[Leiknir]

Pixels look legit there

yes if it's an invasion, no if it's a raid.

Almost to page 4, who thinks chadz was lying? He might wait till page 5 or 6.
