Do you ever wonder about the downstream effects of all the loot trading in this game? Like I’ll win a battle and the spoils will include weapons, armor, horses, gold, commodities, all of that makes sense. But it also includes a lot of boots and shirts and hats looted off the bodies off the less fortunate. Can you imagine being some shopkeeper, and a lord rolls into town fresh off a battle to sell you like 20,000 denars worth of bloody clothes?
And yet, there’s always a demand for them. Where do they go from there? Do the poorer residents of my fiefs wear the clothes that my men stripped off the corpses of the fallen? Is it like how, in some developing countries, you’ll see people wearing a losing team’s commemorative merch from a major sporting event?
