I'd like to see an option for farmers to hunt

They could be dropped on a special hut and have a pop up asking if you are SURE you want to send them hunting (much like how the sewing hut prompts a pop up which asks first). A "fee" of either tech points of food should be taken. (Maybe the pop up box could have the options "Send hunter with 100 food to aide survival" "Give hunter 1500 tech points to aide in the hunt" "Do not send villagers hunting". The choioce you choose to pay with could even have an effect on the outcome of the trip. The hunting trip should last a total of 1/2 a vv year (30 minutes on 2X). If you send the villagers, a variety of events could occur. . .

1)villager never returns (15%)
2)villager returns within a few minutes claming the paths were blocked and they could not go hunting (25%)
3)villager returns after full time with meager food allowance -say 100 (50%)
4)villager returns with a huge amount of food - say 5,000 (10%)

I think this would definately give players a new strategy to develop, and hunting would still be a risky venture that could either go very very wrong or pay off big time

other options could be that no food is brought back but a new rock is discovered and give tech points to village or that when the hunter gets back he brings a disease that sweeps the village leaving them weakened
