Goats inhabit areas of scrub growth on
hills,
plains,
and in mountainous regions.
All attack only if cornered.
Buck goats may charge,
thereby gaining a +2 on their to-hit roll
and an additional 1-2 points of damage.
A herd will consist of 1-2 bucks and up
to 12 does,
and the remainder will be kids (noncombatants).
The goat is the sacred animal of Thor.
Aw shucks!
While I must agree that the
sky is right pretty there, glorious even, I sure had plenty of animals
here in Wisconsin, including a one-third ownership in a billy goat (
) when I was around age 13, a real herd of horses
when I was in my 40s, one of them a state junior champion mare.
In the mix was a raccoon,
crow, rabbits, chickens, ducks, and geese plus sheep, swine, and cattle
a bit before the time of the equines.
