A very good point

So maybe it would be better to be the Tower Guard with a nice coushy pension than the blessed Lava Warrior waiting to be trampled by routing elephants.

Of course with the paint you could simply pretend to be sacred when situation would benefit from it.

Frankly if I was unit I would definetly paint that little icon on me. I'm sure the sacred units can demand a lot more respect out of the average peons.

I wonder if priest are sacred?? hmm...
Respect, yes. But you also get paid less proportionally to your hiring/build cost. Recall upkeep for sacred units is 1/30 of hiring price, and 1/15 for normal units.

So on the same cost basis, your non-sacred collegues are earning twice as much salary as you, lol.

Yes, but then you get reported as bugged, and people would stop recruiting you. Then you'd be COMPLETELY unemployed.

Nah, you'd be an exploit and be abused.
