before embarking , use TAB to see the civ connections

somehow after i marked one tile of swamp biome, every civ (aside gobbos) went NO TRADE, your problem might be similiar

Speaking of which, I had dwarves and humans at one site, and got no caravans at all...

I am getting this problem as well. All civs are accessible, I get migrants, and even an Elf caravan showed up (thankfully with not just cloth, but TAMED ALLIGATORS.) I have also encountered Goblin Snatchers.

But no Dwarf Caravan nor Human Caravan. I'm halfway through my second year.

If it's only mid autumn, don't despair. Caravans seem to come later in the season than before. If you're not getting dorf caravans at all and the civ isn't extinct, I don't know what to say.

Toady, how much of DF is inspired by Labyrinth? Is Armok actually David Bowie? Because that would simultaneously be disturbing and awesome.

Do you have wagon access? >_>

on that note. Has anybody gotten wagons yet? I've gotten caravans, but no wagons, despite having wagon access.
