I see someone offered to marry your brother. Does that mean you can expand your armies and wealth through alliances from marriages?

Yes, so we can get commanders for our army, or we can lose a leader if we marry off our sister, for example. Although that doesn't make much sense haha.

Loving how intricate the smithing is. Did you pick swords, instead of axes and javelins, because it is related to a skill that improves smithing quicker?

Actually, I used to produce javelins in blacksmithing because it was much more profitable. Now it makes more money to produce a double-handed sword.

Also, how hardy and extensive are the weapons? I think I saw that you use mounted archers: are arrows and taking care of horses expensive? In some games, certain weapons have a limited amount of usage before they break or need to be repaired or toughened.

Weapons have no durability in this game. You can take a weapon and use it forever. But in battle your horse can get injured and that means you need a new horse.

Thank you so much for your great comment, man, I really liked that you read my whole post in detail and commented. Deserve a full vote 💯
