Don't know if anyone else has noticed this but the chief will gather firewood. Only tried it with adult non-nursing chiefs so far.

I found that also, I figure that is something that he should do. I am trying to see if having a chief direct work gets more tech points or better building or quicker food gathering.

Has anyone noticed that the chief helps with that??

My chief seems to be helping out A LOT with the speed of hut building.

She'll also do alcemy.

I have just used my chief to heal someone (he is a child and he was already my apprentice doctor before he put on the robe). He would not stay where I was putting him but kept going to the hospital with the action like *concerned about unwell people*

A male chief will also mate with a female. Came home from work, and all my females died. They kept only having male children. Only the chief and 2 other males left, any ideas besides starting over, am at level 2 of all tech and 10,000 food! I probably have to give that tribe up.

Do not give up all hopes, because there can be ways other than a male and female going into the love hut that will bring fresh blood into your tribe!

I have all females. so there is a possiblity something might bring a child?
tried the fertile potion for the fun of it and had them drink it. nothing of course. but had to check,just in case.lol

Yes, there is a possibility of new people. Maybe it'll happen if you wait it out and get lucky.
