Sheep are a vital part of Empire. They may not display as actual
|
|
commodities, but they do exist as part of the game. Introduced to the
|
|
game circa 1990, they have played a vital role in the conquests of
|
|
empires. Not only was it not enough to kill all of your enemy's
|
|
civilians, but the sheep were in danger too. Spinoffs on the concept
|
|
occurred, and these variants further added to the dementia induced by
|
|
playing too much Empire.
