I'm relatively new to Dwarf Fortress, and have never had a noble past baron. I made a new world/fort with the intention of climbing my way up to becoming the mountain-home, but I noticed I haven't even been offered to become a barony yet. I really like my embark, and hope that it isn't a glitch, but it's been 3 years now.

Some stats:
I'm using Lazy Newb Pack
The world year is 208 (I embarked in 205)
All races have multiple civilizations

Created Wealth: ~1,000,000
Imported Wealth: ~14,000
Exported Wealth: ~400,000
Population: Was at 108 until a recent seige. Now it's at ~85

If anyone can tell me why I haven't gotten any nobles yet, I'd appreciate it. I really don't want to leave my current embark yet, as it's perfect.

Have you had any liaison visits from the dwarven civilization at all?

[BrosephStalin]

I've had the visits where they ask me what I want from them, I don't know if those count. I haven't had the one where they ask me to become a barony though. I've also offered them ~100k worth of crafts.


EDIT: Could you guys tell me when you start getting nobles? I read the requirements on the wiki, and if the minimum population is 20, it seems like I'm long over-due. Does world age factor into it? (maybe if the civilization isn't huge it doesn't want a barony?)

[SpiralDimentia]

My suggestion would be to just wait  alittle longer. World age has nothing to do with it, I'm on year 11 and I am a County in my current fortress.

Uh... over 20 just means you can optionally have a sheriff and the manager actually needs to sit down at a desk to verify job management. Over 50 and you have a mayor. I don't remember getting Barons until I was maybe 80-ish in population and it was year 4-ish.
