How the unit or object works

Use nearby Ibex while the route is safe and scout for another Food source before it runs out. Protect workers if the hunt is exposed, and shift gathering when enemy pressure makes the site too costly to hold.

Gather the finite herd efficiently

An Ibex carcass contains 400 Food and supports up to eight gatherers in the recorded profile. It is hunted wildlife, not livestock, and cannot be placed in a pen. Use the source while nearby and safe, then move workers to another Food supply before the herd is depleted.

Replace the hunt before it runs out

An Ibex provides 400 Food and supports up to eight gatherers in the recorded profile. It is finite huntable wildlife, not livestock. Scout its location, gather while the route is safe, then move workers to a replacement Food source before the carcass is exhausted or the opponent can raid the site.
