Elves Sniping Merchants
« on: July 19, 2008, 10:25:07 am »

I embarked next to an elven village, and they have been killing off any trade caravans that come near!  They've already murdered a human caravan, as well as a dwarven caravan.  Also, they leave MY dwarves alone, and are "Friendly".  They didn't kill the first dwarf caravan, or the one elven caravan I've had, but then this might be just because those ones didn't happen to encounter the elves.

Maybe those elves are at war with those civilizations, but not with yours.

Shouldn't the dwarves be in the same civilization as me, though?

Not necessarily. The first caravan that comes really is from your civ, but other may come from other civs, or other groups.
