Does the Prussian Merchant let food count as gunpowder in combat, and must you use a merchant's swap when a shortage moves you back?
Posters agree on both points, but the merchant cards are from a single expansion and no designer has ruled on them.

Yes to the first: with the Prussian Merchant, food and gunpowder count as the same, so food can be spent in combat wherever gunpowder can. No to the second: the merchant's card says 'may', so you can ignore the swap when a shortage moves you back.
