    Merchants can be really good, and early game, but only if you're willing to suffer through savescumming every interaction so they 1) give you that nice lump sum for killing an enemy merchant and 2) rank up quickly so they can be parked on a gold mine or something to generate a steady 500+ florins/turn. If you don't savescum they're a frustrating crapshoot, like all MTW2 agents.

      @@Ambiphonic Yeah their secondary weapon is the militia/light infantry spear (only a +4 to cav), but they actually do more damage to horses than Armoured Sergeants since their base attack is 13 (!). Only problem is their lack of armour means they lose quite a few guys on the charge-defense, but even that can be upgraded with smiths. They also lack AP on their melee weapon so they struggle to kill heavy infantry... But in the Early period when the AI is running mostly spear militia? They shred.

    • @Ambiphonic

      The AP is not a big thing though, as it just halfs armour by 50% so ap is like +3-4 attack on high armored units and less on everybody else.

      It was spanish territory that Portugal was controlling, because the spanish were concentrated in fighting the Caliphate, so they asked the portuguese to develop for them, in exchange of the lion's share of the resources of the land, until Spain was ready to assume control of the province.
      This kind of agreement was not unheard of, in the Middle Ages.
