Alright so you want to go to Pravend recruit some of their units and make sure they go down the crossbow lane since crossbows are really good from what I've tested. Then go to the sea raiders and attack small ones

BLUE: SEA RADIERS
GREEN: NORMAL INFANTRY
RED: ARCHERS


Have the archers hold position in front then have the infantry hold position behind them

once the sea raiders get close enough send in the infantry since the archers basically become useless when they get super close

Then you go and sell the loot at one of the major cities like Pravened or Rovalt.

Then you do that for about 5 minutes or more and get enough money for a caravan. Make a caravan and let them bring in money for you while you also grind the sea raiders then get good gear then for me I joined a kingdom and got a fief and once you get a fief and make money off that you make business in the major cities and you should make at least 1k to 3k every day and then you can just sit in your castle and relax and make a ton of money.

RESEARCH WHERE YOU COULD GET GOOD BUSINESS HERE




The fief is a rare thing that happens, so if you can't get a fief when you join as a vassal just do the caravan and shops
