Sir Asstache Dongleberries.

Dongle is something that existed before. We have abused it mightily, but it existed beforehand.

Asssstache was created by us.

We win and Asssstache is Word of the Year.

Thanks for all the good advice on M2 merchants fellas!

See MD trying to turn this back into a normal, human conversation? See him being the grown-up? Respect.

Hehe...assstache...

What I posted and what I originally typed are not the same thing ;)

Maybe 'Assstaches' could be a new commodity traded for great profit in some circles by MD's merchants? If you succeed in cornering the market, you could be the "Assstache King" in fact. I can't imagine who would want to buy one but you wouldn't want to be without one if they suddenly start to run out.

Don't abuse your dongle...you'll go blind. :DD

I had actually heard that merchants were porked and it was best to not even use them.

This could be why I've never won a campaign in M2TW.

Anyway, I've never even thought of them. I think, maybe, I'm doing it wrong. Standard with me and Total War.

Merchants were very frustrating for me in the game too. I kept losing them until I figured-out how to hide them until they were survivable on their own. I remember playing as HRE and the region Vienna is in has gold. So I took it, built the mines and then parked my merchants on them until they got some good experience. I protected them with spies and assassins. The region became my 'Merchant Nursery'.

I used them all the time for extra cash, they definitely work.
