Attack 3 Merchants

[arreclain]

I got a world event to attack 3 merchants before year 8. It's possible that my strategy was bad, but after attacking 2 of them (and losing 9 villagers), "no sane merchant is willing to visit my village."

I mean, yeah, that's wise and all, but that makes attacking 3 merchants before year 8 a little hard to do. Was my strategy bad or is this event unable to be completed?

*Edit* As mentioned below, the no trader coming text will disappear once your city score turns positive again.

If you want to go after that achievement then it's best to attack one VERY early, and immediately summon the second and the third trader once you see the arrival timer.

Doesn't hurt to have perks/bonuses that synergies with dying villagers either, and/or way to quickly replenish the workforce, but not strictly required.

There is a hidden stat ofnyour total score. When it is too low, merchants will not come after attacking them.
