More classes would be nice
It would also be cool if you, as a merchant/craftsman sell stuff to a soldier/thief dynasty (another player) he would get stronger than the average soldier. And maybe be able to sell stuff to other countries, making them stronger than they otherwise would be. You could gain allies this way, and ofc enemies. Or you could just sell your stuff on the marketplace to let everyone buy it and dont really take a side.
Maybe you could sell stuff a little under the table, smuggle if you will. If a country is declaring war against another country, you could sell weapons without anyone knowing to any of them (or possible both?) without the other one knowing it. However, if someone would tell on you, or if you get caught doing this, maybe the country who finds out you're helping his enemy wouldnt get so happy.
I hope you get the picture, more "depth" and consequences depending on what actions you do, who you sell/craft stuff to. This would be really interesting if we had more professions to choose from. Like soldiers, thiefs and stuff. Who knows what would happen
the depth and consequences regarding your actions is something I missed from the guild games
