Heard of - Yes.
Seen - Not in Olympia 2. ( but Ive spent a lot time in the wilderness )

But not needing to go to some other city to find oxen is in it self
making it easier to build a castle.

I am not arguing that castles being easier to build is good or bad.
I personaly have mixed feelings on it.
But if changes were to be made it is best that as many side affects be
predicted as possible. And that is all I am doing, predicting a side affect.
