I painted up some cheap plastic sheep that I got from Amazon. I will be using these to dress up my LOTR or Viking games.

They look good. And you can never have too much livestock. |

The importance of sheep as a scenario target in skirmish games is sorely underrrated. |

Sheep. Ten thousand years of domestication to produce the stupidest animal on the planet. Fortunately they make up for their lack of brains by being tasty. This is how I like to see sheep. link As a matter of interest – do you order Ertl animals from the States? If so, any links to decent retailers?
Cheers

There are too many jokes about these being a good victory goal of "name a nationality you want to joke about" soldiers. |

Actually, they were of far greater importance for their wool: no wool, no clothing other than leather! Sheep reproduce much faster than cattle, so they are actually more important than cattle for meat, as well as their wool. Cheers! |
