This article is about the huntable in Age of Mythology: Tale of the Dragon. For the related huntable in Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties, see Marco Polo Sheep.

The Ram was a wild animal which was cut from Age of Mythology but was later introduced in Age of Mythology: Tale of the Dragon that could be killed for food. It struck back when attacked, but it had few hit points and provides a lot of food, making it an excellent food source.

It was removed in Retold.

History[]

Scientific Name - Ovis ammon polii
Size -- 20-24 in. to shoulder.
Diet -- Grasses, flowers, shoots, mosses, lichens

The Marco Polo sheep is named for the famous explorer who first described them, and is a subspecies of argali mountain sheep, the largest wild sheep in the world. Located exclusively in the Pamir mountain range bordering China, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan, the Marco Polo sheep is now endangered with only about 6,000 remaining. It is instantly recognizable by its immense set of curving horns, the largest of which is said to have reached lengths of more than 6 feet.

Trivia[]

  • The Ram's models and texture/icon files are still located in the respective models.bar and textures.bar in the original Age of Mythology files, along with its anim file in its respective anim.bar, because of this it is possible to re-add it into the original game via modifications.
  • The Ram has the same history section as the Marco Polo Sheep in Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties.
