Do sieges prevent immigration / trade caravans?
« on: November 17, 2007, 11:38:00 pm »
As I'm sure most have discovered,

siege AI is currently not really implemented.  "A Vile Force of Darkness!" arrives and then just mills around the border of the map unless you go poke at them.

On my Current fortress, "Inkblaze", I'm pretty much constantly sieged.  I don't have the military to rout those goblin fools so I've just been ignoring them.

It seems like about 5 seasons now since I've seen a trader or gotten some immigrants.

Yes, sieges block both migrations and caravans. Irritatingly, if a goblin army shows up early in the season, chances are you're not getting anyone else showing up that season no matter how quickly you rout them.
