Will these Elfs/Goblins attack me?
« on: April 11, 2011, 03:37:11 pm »

Hey guys
I've been playing on this fortress for ~5 (pobably more, I can't remember) in-game years and I've created around 500'000 db of wealth. Yet I still haven't seen any goblins, elves or humans around my fort. So I made I copy of my save, abandoned it and tried to reclaim to see where my fort was. I realized that I embarked on a small continent (or big island? I don't know) in the south west, where the red circle is. There are goblin fortresses at the yellow circles and elf forests at the brown ones.

Now my question: Are they able to travel over the frozen ocean to visit my fort?
