Getting started quickly

After many half finished campaigns, I’ve finally got a solid way build wealth and renown really quickly to fast forward your kingdom for new players:

1. Have about 3-4 points in trade.

2. Keep no more than 25 mid tier troops. It know it’s tempting to have more but it’s a waste of money. 25 is a good balance of carry capacity and killing occasional bandits.

3. This is probably the most helpful part of the post ->

Buy raw silk from Amprela in the Northern empire on khuzati boarder. Under 10 is a good deal, sell across aserai for 18-30.

Buy pottery for under 100 and jewelry for under 200 from the aserai and bring it up toward Battania. Sell if you find good prices above that.

Buy flax and clay for 10 or less, and tools for 50-60 in Battania. Head back toward Amprela, load up on a shit load of silk, then repeat.

Eventually you can start mixing in other goods when you get a feel for the pricing but from what I’ve seen, silk from Amprela goes really far in Aserai territory, and tools can easily sell for 2-3 times the original cost if you buy for 50-60. I don’t even really bother with sturgia, valandria, khuzati, or central empire this early because selling the silk to the aserai and tools along the way is the best trade run I’ve seen.

1. While doing this, join every tournament you possibly can for gear and renown. Sell any horses you win (you can always win them again)

2. Once trade is high enough, i take the perk that let’s me earn renown from caravans and start running those while I run my own trade. Eventually you become the tournament champion and earn daily renown from that as well.
