How to steal from traders using 3 rocks.
« on: May 18, 2010, 02:21:31 pm »
I recently stole the entire caravan of some traders using 3 stones. How? i'll tell you.

build a trading depot.

wait for traders. when the traders are on it, destroy the depot. later they will leave with nothing. yay!

be warned, every one of your dorfs will have to carry a lot. they may be upset.

Also, in 40d ordering the merchants' clothes dumped was a way of making profit without pissing them off. It doesn't quite work as well in 31.xx, due to GCS silk's lower value.
