Is growth scale must in a long game?

Mebbe, and I think 20 is an awfully high taxpayer age for a medievalish time-frame, but it'd be easy enough for the event to reflect something that happened in the past:

"Under the influence of the stars, fourteen years ago every woman in this province gave birth to twins."

Frankly, I like the other way better. You can imply either:

a) The effect is felt today from the event being reported.

-or-

b) There's some sort of 'baby tax' that parents pay.

The idea remains valid however you put it though.

Those are good ideas, although an event being recorded and then reported 14 years after... thats kinda..

Should we really care about those things? This is only a game, after all. More cattle born would do for most nations, though.

And weren't there many plague-events, and the worst could only come up with negative luck? I can't find the thread where I read that, but I think IW-team said something like that somewhere in this forum.
