− | Immigration can occur at any time once per season. Smaller migrant waves of 2 to 10 seem typical in early seasons, followed by a large wave in the low double digits in the second Spring, one year after embark. It may be the case that the first 2 migrant waves are special and possibly generated out of thin air, like all waves used to be. Even if your parent civilization is extinct, two waves will still show up. Each group of migrants will often include domestic animals, either as a pet or unclaimed livestock. Be prepared with adequate [[food]], [[alcohol|drink]], and [[bed]]s, among other things. Max wave size reported to date is | + | Immigration can occur at any time once per season.

Imported wealth, caravan sales figures, absolute caravan profit and caravan profit margin either have no effect on migration numbers, or only have an effect by applying a percent modification to the numbers driven by created wealth. If a fortress manages to [[trading|trade]] (not offer) away 100% of its created wealth then no immigrants will come the next season. More research is needed to determine if the aforementioned statistics have any influence on migration numbers. | Imported wealth, caravan sales figures, absolute caravan profit and caravan profit margin either have no effect on migration numbers, or only have an effect by applying a percent modification to the numbers driven by created wealth.
