If the Southern Triad can hold the central armies they'll be in a strong postion bacause they'll only be 2 players with lots of food reserves them and the Merchants, which begs the question what do the merchants want?
"An army marches on its stomach" (Napoleon Bonaparte) is very true. Merchant is trying to make a new currency, of course, very risky. Merchant is currently buying all the crops and goods that are necessity for life in the capital. I believe he is hoping to make wheat, Capital's staple crop, as the new currency. Sounds weird in general but could work.
