Sieges in 40d9.
« on: June 27, 2009, 04:54:46 am »

I have a 6 year old fort of >150 dorfs, a wealth of >2,000,000 and a baroness, but I have had no goblin sieges, several ambushes (Kobold and goblin) but no sieges. Are sieges glitched in any way in 40d9 (That's what I'm using)?

Note: I have not modded the raws at all.

(Sorry for another 'Why are there no sieges thread')

The only two things that I can think of that could cause this is either:

1.) Your civilization is friendly with the goblins.

or

2.) All of the goblin civilizations have been killed off.

I'm not entirely sure if these can stop goblins from sieging you though.

Edit: I forgot to add that it could also be that they can't reach you if you are on a island.

If you want a siege, make the humans angry, then you'll get a siege in no time ;)

If you're cut off from all goblin civilizations by mountain, lake, or ocean, the goblins can't siege you.

He's had ambushes though, and I'm pretty sure that means he's not cut off from any civs.

I do have contact with the goblins, elves, dorfs, kobold and human on the (C)ivs screen.
It's very strange...

Create more wealth. That can affect siege frequency and size I believe.
