I suggest you read up on multiple depots beforehand; they tend to not work well (iirc merchants go for oldest unforbidden depot on the map, for example.)

Also, nothing can see engravings expect you and the dwarf creating them; they really only affect room value. Though it adds atmosphere in this case.

That's why I'll have bridges in place, to block the depots.

And yeah, it's mostly just atmosphere. :P

Now. How to capture human, elf, and goblin visitors...? Lock them in their long-term rooms?

Bridges do not work.


Huh? I can't have bridges raised to block access to the extra depots and then lock in the merchants?

Yes. They'll select the oldest unforbidden depot on the map - even if it is encased in ice, as shown in Roomcarnage.

Oh. Bridges and forbidding then!
