With the recent nerf in caravans, its near impossible to make a steady income in this game. Furthermore, as soon as you join a kingdom as a vassal you don't get anything. They should go back to how Warband did it and give you a fief as soon as you join the kingdom as a vassal, or at least you'll be guaranteed the next fief that they conquer in a war. This would transfer your economic reliance from caravans and workshops, unstable sources of income and an early/mid game way of accruing denars, to a more consistent, stable, and end-game way of making money.
