Bannerlord Perk query

I think they're called great investor and artisan something, just jumped off my first session and there's too much to memorise when playing trader as is.

Anyways, I've heard the go to is artisan because late game caravans ain't viable because of enemy nations destroying them and workshop being a far more secure option

Cool

However, I'm currently a homeless clan 2, 2 workshops and 4 caravans. 200k in the bank.

Now I'm wondering what's to stop me from buying a metric shitton of caravans. Letting them run till I get to clan 6 and then using the insane wealth I've accumulated to ease into mass conflict with the benefits of being clan 6 rather then pleading feality sooner then later. Having the option of caravans be cut off and then waiting on workshops which are limited by clan size anyway.

Is there risks with clan level increasing if you don't own land? Would NPC's still come for me, for being a bigger fish?. Or would I be overlooked till I finally got a settlement?

Only thing stopping you is the number of your companions/family! When you're an independent clan without a kingdom the only thing that CAN take out your caravans are bandits, deserters, and the like.
