This problem is one everyone has probably encountered, and it has
significant implications for the way your town should be constructed.
These days I make absolutely sure not to have anything at all between
the town hall and the mine (at least, until I deplete it and all my
peasants wind up standing around looking stupid.)  I have had my guys
get trapped in other more insidious ways, though--once I built my
church in the wrong place and when the clerics were created they were
trapped between it and trees, so I had to send peasants to cut them
out.  Other times peasants have built buildings right next to the
river and then gotten trapped until I sent an archer to kill 'em off
(no point letting them eat my food, right?)  Anyone know if there's
any hope for relief from this kind of thing in Warcraft II?

A little Warcraft tidbit, by the way, just in case anyone hasn't
noticed this:  try clicking on a unit several times in succession and
listening to what he says.  I laughed out loud the first time it
happened to me.
