Killing the traders?
« on: December 21, 2009, 01:58:51 pm »

So I was wondering what would happen if you trapped the trading wagons in your fort, would the dwarfs guarding them attack mine? or can I wall them in a kill them from hunger or thirst?

If you block their exit from the map they will eventually go insane and possibly kill/injure your residents.  Yes you can wall them up and let them go insane/die etc, however I find it much easier to build my trade depot so that I can pump it full of water and drown them.

Make sure rest of your fort is air tight first tho  ::)
