No migrants for years?
« on: January 26, 2012, 03:08:04 pm »

My fort is about 10 years old now and I had the total of 2 migrant waves both after the initial embark, I have steady visits from elven/dwarven caravans and sometimes even the humans show up.
I have 18 dwarves..I had 20 but I lost them due to goblin ambushes[the perpetrators are kept in cages so in the future my army will have something to practice on, so far I have 45 of them...], one dwarf that survived is now a legendary crutch-walker from the years of walking with crutches.

Anyway - 10 years..no migrant waves yet steady caravans from dwarfs/elves/humans, in the civilization screen I see that my civilization has both a king and a general so its certainly not dead, what can be causing my fort not to receive migrants?I'm not even getting that message saying that my fort didn't attract any migrants in the season, my created wealth is at 160k, exported at 14k and imported 41k, I always make sure the traders get a fair deal so they will come back next year.

Since you're still getting a caravan, I'm not sure what the problem could be.
Have you set the max dwarf population lower?
