Caravan System
So I've tried searching this but nothing comes up so if it has been discussed in the past my apologies.
So there are several things I'm curious about when it comes to this game mechanic and any information regarding it would be greatly appreciated.
1. How well guarded are these caravans or will that depend on how much you pay for protection?
2. Will there be multiple routes between two cities to choose from or will it be a predetermined route?
3. Is there a penalty for attacking caravans such as not being able to enter a city for a given amount of time?
4. Will you know who attacked your caravan or will it remain a mystery if no one survives?
5. Will there be a limit to the amount of caravans you can attack or could you camp the kings road all day picking off caravans?
These are just a few of the question I have so far and any information on them or maybe a link to a previous post that just didn't show up for me would be of much help.

2. Pretty sure you can more or less control exactly how you wanna go about it, maybe even control it yourself.
3. Everyone around a caravan gets flagged for PVP and for a bit afterwards. Most cities probably wont allow flagged players to enter, but as it is all combatant PvP theres no longer lasting effect.
4. Well you would probably see a name plate, but if not... Then I guess yes it is a mystery.
5. You could camp the road all day, but people will change route, go gank you, get more guards etc.
Hope that helps a bit.
