STEP 1, 2 and three
The first thing should do is choose whether to deliver the letter or not, if you do, it starts the main questline but you also have to watch out for lannisters

NEXT STEP
go to the camp and change the options if you want to make the game easier or harder and to change features, this is the reason you were wounded in the intro.

TURDLY on the way to the north get a lot of peasants, it doesn't matter where from.
Step 3,4 and 5
Now you've made it to the north, go around the villages and cites and fill your inventory with furs,
(the villages may have one or two and its still cheap)
NEXT STEP
If you have enough money take a ferry from White Harbour to Sisterton and sell as many furs as you can
BOOM, you're already farting gold dust

NEXT MEME
Once the merchants at Sisterton are all out of money then get some good soldiers and head on down to Fairmarket to sell the furs,
Step 69, 420 and 911
Once the traders at Fairmarket are skint, go and get more furs and head to White Harbour

THE NEXT STEP CRINGEY FAKE REALITY SHOW FOR KIDS
once you're at White Harbour, see the ships, buy a good one if you can, if you can't then repeat the steps or go to Sisterton and look at ships there

911 was an inside job
Once you have a ship you won't need to pay for ferries... on that side of Westeros, but you will be able to expand your trade to Gulltown and Maidenpool, and if you ever get to Maidenpool then go to Saltpans and buy loads of salt, sell that when you go back north

at this point you should be following through with gold
Step 10
You should be able to go around most of Westeros with your ship, keep trading and find new stuff to sell if you can and you should be ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ gold in no time, any new trades you find are laxatives
bad guys are constipation,

remember to save VERY often (every 30 seconds or so, or if you're near enemies) and if something doesn't go your way, reload the save

Good luck and remember
there's no cure for being a ♥♥♥♥
oh no, following through
HEY GUYS ITS ME, OBNOXIOUSLY LOUD CHILDRENS YOUTUBER HERE, BACK WITH ANOTHER VIDEO

Get stone and iron for cheap at Stoney Sept and Lannisport, sell them pretty much anywhere.
Enterprises
Here is how to get enterprises easily,
so follow above and you should get money, every time you get about 18-20,000
you should get an enterprise, in Westeros, the best seem to be ironworks and breweries,
now, you don't need to do a quest for the guild master, you can just go to the inn and buy drinks for the whole inn, which should only be 1000, its a lot faster and sometimes guild master missions can be long and annoying. just keep repeating this.
Prices, what i do, and other
I didn't say much about the prices but generally when something, salt, furs, iron, is piss cheap it is about 30-50 money, and should sell for around 400+ at the best average.

What i do to make money is do something like this.
Salt from the salt places (Riverlands, Saltpans, Riverrun, Fairmarket)
Furs from fur places (The North, Pretty much anywhere in the north, including castle black)
Iron from iron places (Westerlands, Lannisport, Kayce, Stoney Sept)
Villages will also sell one or two of these goods for cheap.

TIMBER
TIMBER IS CHEAP IN THE NORTH, ESPECIALLY CASTLE BLACK
Land Registry
You can only get land from the land registry if you share the culture of the land.
I don't recommend this early on, since for it's a big investment.
The first time i got land was when my money from Qarthigar had been sitting there accumulating for ages, i went to Winterfell, since i go there a lot to buy furs I thought i'd treat myself, and i bought 80, which giving a rent of 120 odd every two weeksw which is roughly 4000, and every week is 2000, is pretty good since my best enterprise does 1000.

A bad thing about this is you have to go to the place manually to get the money, but it does build up and if you put them in places on your trade route, it won't be out of your way.
The other bad thing is the first line in this section, so if your culture is Valyrian, then i think you're ♥♥♥♥♥♥, if it's Westerlands, Riverlands, or North, then it's best.
Another bad thing is that i'd say it's capped based on the population since it tells you that rents won't be paid if land is well supplied, and I don't know how many people it is per acre.

Sorry for the bad English, but could someone tell me if it is possible to claim natural harbors, destroyed towers or fortresses, like that White Fortress that is in ruins in the center of the map? Is it even possible to do it? :steamsad:

Salt:
Source it in the Riverlands or Volantis - sell pretty much anywhere else.

Timber:
Source it in The North - sell on coastal cities elsewhere (Except Storm's End)

Iron:
Source it in The Western Westerlands (Stoney Sept, Kayce, Lannisport) and Dragonstone territories. Sell in Eastern Westerlands (King's Landing/Duskendale) or The North. You can also source it from the Iron Islands, but unless you're an Ironborn you likely can't safely do that.

For enterprises, the only ones worth it are Wine Press, Ironworks, and Brewery - all others underperform. Brewery will yield more only if food (grain bags) are available at low cost, but keep in mind that metric changes almost immediately once war is declared. Ironworks and Wine Presses are more consistent, but much more expensive. Never ever make a Tannery - the mod has no consistent source of hides in any villages so it will always provide negative income.

You can also get furs from the cities in Essos - specifically Pentos, Lys, Volantis, Lorath AND Bravos all have cheap furs. Also, in most playthroughs if you go directly to start this, it won't work since the startup prices in villages is pretty high - it needs a couple weeks to really stabilize prices and you may need to clean out their inventories to start (purchase/sell at a loss) These cities can also all be accessed using fast travel from ports in Maidenpool, White Harbor, Duskendale, Kings Landing and Sunspear. (Go by yourself, don't take an army - the cost scales up with party size.) It is COMPLETELY safe to fast travel in this way. (although the game can lock up when exiting the fast travel mode - don't do this if you are using forced-saves) This also means you can trade, grow, and invest in enterprises with absolutely ZERO army. You can still make field camps and store your armies near trade routes for when you need them.

if you go to lannister castle or town with lord and meet them, you can ask for peace, it shouldnt cost too much, so their armies can stop pestering you
