Trade Bug?
The caravan showed up, I started moving goods/broker, The liaison met with my manager before the caravan finished unloading, appointed the baron, and then the caravan was gone! In the future would it be best to lock away my manager until after the caravan leaves?
(user Disacorns, forgot to sign)
- Caravans spontaneously leaving are completely unrelated to liaison activity. The merchants leave instantly when one of their units gets killed, either a merchant, a draft or hauling animal, or a wagon (guards don't count). Wagons commonly break when their wagon-pullers get afraid and run away, which can happen for a variety of reasons.--Larix (talk) 21:07, 13 December 2014 (UTC)
- The caravan didn't leave, it vanished. Finished "peeking" on the conversation and it was gone. Checked the announcements, nothing.

What does a Baron do?
Newbie on my 2nd game, just got my first baron (someone inherited) so I've kitted out the office/etc, but I have no idea what benefit (if any) I get from having a baron? 31.51.9.181 17:12, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
If the baron dies
... you can still become the Mountainhome, and the king brings a baron with him (in this case the queen brought the king consort, who also became the baron). Remains to be seen whether you can go to count/duke. 2A02:A210:80:E80:AC7A:A993:68DA:A0CE 16:20, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
- My baron in my current fortress was killed before the fortress was elevated to a county or duchy. For several years now the liaison has come and said "This land will be elevated to a [county or duchy, I don't remember]", and I even got a message later that said "[My Fortress] and the surrounding lands have been elevated to a [count/duchy] , but no new baron or duke is listed on my nobles screen.
