Detailed description

• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if any.
As the Militants, I attempted to conquer territory hex (-1,0) (at 8:56 am USA central time on the time code). The only token in that hex was a player cube belonging to the player using the Traders civilization. The game allowed the Traders to play a trap card when they should not have been allowed to.

However, current version of the game (Move #245 in this game: boardgamearena.com/9/tapestry?table=455632201) gives a Trader the opportunity to play a Trap card when an opponent attempts to conquer a territory with (only) a Trader token.
Trap text reads: "You may discard this card from your hand when an opponent tries to conquer your territory."
If the Trader token does not provide control of a territory, then it shouldn't count as "your territory" and thus the Trader player should not be able to play a Trap.
Trader outpost was on the middle island; when it was conquered by an opponent, Trader player had the opportunity to play a trap card.

Table #600609559
Move 409-411
Would be nice to see this bug fixed, since several players might not realize it's existence and activate their trap card illegitimately.
