Goblins won't invade.
« on: February 02, 2010, 11:40:39 pm »
I have no goblins! I know I saw them on the embark screen, but not a single gobbo has been sighted.

Is there a reason this is happening? I have [INVADERS: ON] in the init.txt. Is my fort not valuable enough?

I even have children! Where are the goblins? I demand goblinite!

Give it another year. I seldom get goblins before 35 dwarves at least, and your fort isn't exactly the shining obelisk of opulence.

oh for a "shiny" synonym that started with "o"

This is an exceptionally generated World. It menaces with spikes of Gabbro.

there may be no evil regions in your map, or no goblin civs

He already said he saw them on the embark screen. [EVIL] is a nonissue or else we'd need two other civs for [GOOD] and neutral biomes as well.

your fortress has very little wealth, you need to fix that, preferably by mass producing mugs in a craftsdwarf shop (try getting it to at least 400,000). once you have some more dwarfs and much more wealth, the goblins WILL come, and depending on how well you have prepared for them, Fun may insue....
