Hello! Could you answer this for me?

Recently i started with succubus civilization, and i`m enjoying better than warlock.
Some problems i had in the start was a invasion of dwarves with titanium equipments and the worse was copper. I did't had the strength to deal with them, and i knew i would lose so i got a outside source(dfhack) to burn them with lava and wall 2 of them with obsidian, not a right way to enjoy a game by hacking but i don't want to lose so soon.
 So i build some vanilla builds first and them i remembered about the others from the mod like ( temple of sin, temple of fire, etc) So far i dont know much about nightmare temple and abyssal temple, i know that the nightmare bring some traders from hostile civilization to our base, but do they come with a army?
 I had some issues with hunters, they did't hunt so i decide to look better and made some quivers, curved bow, arrows. So they decided to hunt some coyotes but killed nothing, they had terrible skills with hunting. Is normal to a hunter dont hunt swan? and flying animal?
My next issue is about farming, i made farm plots in the dirt in the cave and outside. None of them produces plants or grow, do i need a special thing with this mod?

The problems with the plants only made summon creatures impossible, and cultivate soul in the soul well take along time ( i managed to get 1 so far) so i decide to look a strong summon that i could get the recipe easy. Them i looked the Obsidian Colossus, i had to mine until i get to the bottom of the earth and found the netherworld( had to block it with obsidian wall from the dfhack :/ ) So i could make the Obsidian colossus and is my only defense so far for further attacks.

My real problem is the farm plot issue, they dont grow and is being a pain.

Thank you for you time and i hope you can answer my question.

Use the appropriate thread - http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=138901.0

You need to enable plants growing in the farm plots with (q)uery. You need to do it for every season.

Here's some answers :

- Succubi are not so good with bows and hunters are bad too when novice. With cheap bone arrows they will eventually hit their targets. Check the ammunition screen under the military interface to set up their ammo (and remove shards if the game decided add it there by default). Over time they will be better hunters and will hit flying creatures.

- Traders will come with guards, but not 9 warriors with a leaders. This is much easier to take care off then a siege as long as you have armor.

- Are the plants being put in the farm plots? In that case they will grow over time, underground plots takes a whole year (!) to grow so I recommend relying on above ground at first. Above ground will suddenly disappear in winter so you are better setting the fields to fallow in autumn, that will allow the summer crops to yield food without losses. Try gathering plants outside and brew them if you need more seeds.

Also the obsidian colossus seems to be intelligent which limit its uses. That will be fixed asap.
