Attack the trader – how to do it and benefits

If you build a trading post, you will be able to welcome merchants in your settlement. They will appear from time to time and offer their goods, building blueprints or perks. Everything costs money, of course, unless you decide to attack the trader.

To do this, just select the sword hand in the lower right corner of the trade tab (it will open when you select the appropriate menu or press trading post). This will put a sizable portion of the trader's goods in your possession (about 50%). Be careful, however, as this will affect the rest of the game.

Attack the trader – consequences

If you decide to attack a trader, you must expect severe consequences:

1. Queen’s Wrath – Significant increase in Queen's Impatience, if it fills, the end of the game will follow.
2. Villagers – you must expect to lose a few settlers.
3. Infamous Viceroy – traders arrival time is longer.
4. Bad reputation – wealthier traders will avoid your settlement.

Because of the above consequences, in most cases it does not really pay to attack traders. Do it only if you really have no other choice.
