Some drunken village leader suggested at last night's town meeting that we build a wall around Jumperton. Something about "Making Jumperton grape again". I'm sure he was in his cups. Aside from not having any stone from which to construct a wall, who're we trying to keep out? Feral sheep?
Jumperton was founded sixty years ago by refugees from a war-torn state. We've done some great things since the founders arrived! We have a surplus and great variety of food, clothing and booze. Plenty of accommodation. Even a "Seamstresses" guild *cough* (tbh I doubt the hands of any of the ladies working there have ever seen a needle and thread.) We have, or rather had, 4 vineyards keeping the citizenry content in the taverns but an aging population is making it very difficult. The town population has slowly declined by a full third and is likely to decline further. Our people are too hardworking and not spending enough time... "relaxing". The long and the short of it is that Jumperton is an Immigrant Town, but it seems that the rest of the world is so great that no one wants to immigrate! We could make good use of a tired, poor, huddled-mass or two! Can anyone suggest what I can do to encourage immigration?
tl;dr 60 years into the game and I haven't seen a single nomad. I have a town hall, I've checked that there are bridges connecting all the landmasses. Do I need to do anything besides build a town hall? I had an "old town" trading post and in year 60 I added a vanilla trading post. Waiting another 2 years but still no shabbily-dressed conga-lines to be seen.
CC171Journey is the only mod I'm running.
Thanks!
