Age 87 ....and equipped with an "aged retainer???!!!!!"

That's not an aged retainer -- we're talkin' mummification here.

If he wore a wig, he wouldn't look a day older than 55.

I had a really weird one... Not my faction but the senate..

I had some good assassins and was continuously assassinating the faction heirs for the Senate faction. The Faction leader had the kind of traits that make assassination practically impossible.

Anyway I was waiting for him to die off and hopefull kick off the collapse of the senate faction and the whole civil war thing. But he kept going on and on... He got to 102 before I saved the game for the day.

Then I saw this thread and though I could get a screenshot of it but when I load up the game Senate Faction leader is no longer there. In while the senate faction remains in roman and has not rebeled, it has no members/generals!?!?!?

The senate is a unique faction in many aspects, I think you can´t wipe it out by killing its family members. I haven´t tried, though, conquering that single city is easier than running after all the family members.

Check here for some scarily old generals. There are some other topics on the same lines, but I can't find them.

I do not know how to take pictures, but as the Greek Cities, I had a 103 year old facshun leader.

General...in his late 70's I think.

I had old Flavius Julius reach 88 before the short campaign ended. Would have been interesting to see how long he went.

A couple of my faction leaders have reached their 80s. Khnumhoptep (Egyptian) took down the Seleucids and Parthia before he passed at 85 I think. I've had two FLs in my current Scipii game hit 80: Gaius (at the beginning of the game), and Julianus the Philosopher/Killer (about 100 years later on).
