I understand that the elves are tree hugger environmentalists, but I think this is going too far:

It is possible the roast may have animal meat as a component.   Otherwise, those elves have gone too far.

Yeah, I have noticed that same thing. It is probably meat or fat or fish as a component. Don't sell clear or crystal glass either, as you need wood to make that.

'Course the elves suck, no matter how you put it.

I just steal from the elves. Nothing bad happens and all you get might just bee a tree cut limit which usually is above 100 ( not as if you cut more than that ).

Best trading commidity is mugs>gold coins>weapons( hopefully you get a legendary weaponsmith and that solves every trading problem )

I never trade with the elves at all,  all they ever bring are seeds, and small amounts of them too.  The humans are the way to go.  Unfortunately I forgot to trade with the last caravan and then the next one came a few minutes before a goblin siege started.  :confused:

Anyone else use the traders as mobile chasms? I find that after goblin attacks, they leave behind such ridiculous amounts of clothing, armor, and weapons, that I just load up all the caravans to the brim with their junk, sending it back to the human/dwarven/elven kingdoms. Net effect? They are happier with me and won't ever declare war on me, and I have a much cleaner, faster fort.

Honestly, I have never once been unable to purchase every single thing from the trader. Maybe something needs to be changed, it just seems too easy.

Solution: Metal items.

If you take care of them, some things can get worth a LOT of goods (Create something, then stud them as much as possible)
