8 goblins maybe more are camped outside my fort. ive raised my bridge but just before they got to the bridge the merchants got in. i though this would be good but it just said they will be leaving soon.

will they go insane if i keep them here as i don't really want to open the bridges as the horde will charge

[the great fool]

im fairly sure that they will just wonder around a bit and wait for you to open the bridge, though one time that happened to me and they wandered through my fortress, down into a underground cavern, and managed to find a way out!

but if i were you i would build some ballistas and take pot shots at them.

Merchants can leave through the caverns, if you can get them down there. Otherwise, I think they will go stir-crazy, like the diplomats, but that's just a guess. Are the caravan guards not enough to deal with the invaders?

ive got a few balista's gaurding my entrance but its an above ground entrance so i can't expand. will they wander around for ever?

the reason i ask is i foresaw this and modded in a dooms day task where i create large amounts of raw adamantine. but making armor takes a long time and i would prefer to only fight the enemies not 7 crazed merchants and guards.

existent, this is 8 enemies and 3 guards (one got atom-smashed) and the elves just don't have the needed dorfyness to do the job as they didn't fare to well in the first battle

All you needed to say. I figured it was a human caravan, for some reason.
