Normally when my farmers and builders get to that stage where they're so old they can barely move I train them to research as a way to "retire" them and let the younger crowd take over. However, last night after five 70+ ladies refused to learn after multiple tries, I got frustrated and made a "special stew". I proceeded to force feed it to all women 50+ and killed them all off. After all, they couldn't breed anymore and I was tired of fighting with the stubborn old biddies when all I wanted to do was give them a well earned rest!

Then today when the elderly men refused to learn a new craft, I did the same to them, only I only killed off the men 65+. (I like to keep certain older ones strictly for breeding.)

I feel guilty about it, but doggone it, I'm the Goddess of this tribe. If they're not going to do as I say I shall have to bring down some old fashion wrath upon them!
