...an inexperienced sea dealer in the time of the Hanseatic League in the 13th century insignificant, without means, without every considerable reputation.... Much will change. If you slip into the role of the merchant, do trade, build up production places, even whole towns and your own sea fleet, start risky expeditions and you increase your reputation and your influence with diplomacy and politics. Legal as sea dealer and town council - illegal as pirate and smuggler. The world was never fair. It is up to you how you become a mayor, forge trade alliances, wage wars, play off against your competitors by means of money and power. You wanted never to be a sea dealer, you become a patrician!
