Title: Another camel thread
Post by: Havoco on September 03, 2013, 03:55:24 am
Time to bring this up again. Now that donkeys are here are there any plans of adding camels? So that our Muslim/ Middle East themed factions can have some fun yessssss?

Camels would be very good for Strategus. They could give a speed bonus on desert lands.

I am in for camels! Why the hell not?.. Goats would be too much of a joke, but if we have donkeys and samurai, why not include camels? There are many Middle Eastern players, and lots of weapons/armors to fit the style.

After the arab conquest, most of the transport of good was made with camels. That's why, these countries let their roman road disapear and never used the wheel. Camels were the ONLY way to carry goods in all the muslim world (except by boats, of course). Camels were essential and a way of life for many men.

It can be so great to see camels implemented at the game (if i'm not wrong, i have seen a singleplayer mod of Mount & Blade Warband where i have seen camels and war elephants, i think the name of the mod is Floris, or Native Expansion...)

Au moyen-âge, les éléphants n'étaient utilisés qu'en Inde. Et ils se sont avérés inefficaces contre les cavaliers Moghols (plus rapides et mobiles).

Hit Points : 120 Armor : 8 Speed : 40 Maneuver : 40 Charge : 8 Price : No idea Difficulty : No idea
P.S : I have an other idea, it's to add a capacity for camels to be more powerful on desert maps, like 5 maneuver points bonus, or something else... (but i don't think it's possible :()

+1 for camels. Actually makes sense considering their actual historical use and the number of Saracen themed items already in the game. Please also add throwing scimitars/swords plox

I have an other idea about camels :
-Make them less faster than horses BUT add them a bonus on the desert maps (and for the desert horse too :)) and add a malus for all other horses in those kind of maps (if it's possible)
And when i'm talking about desert maps, i'm talking about desertic BATTLE maps and for Sarranid SIEGE maps

They should be slower. Maybe 35, and less manoeuvering.
Something like donkeys (with special abilities on Strategus).

how do they run? i seriously hope they are not running like horses (big pases in gallop). They should run with small but fast steps
Actually, they do gallop, it's just not as elegant as a horse gallop: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHmwZGju43E

Based on my Age of Empires/Wikipedia sources, camels scare the shit out of horses. That's probably not capable of being implemented to cRPG but its worth knowing.
Camels would definitely be a fun addition, but where would they fit in? Here is my stupid idea:
When it rains in cRPG, horses go slower. How about when you're on a desert map, regular horses go slower, but camels go faster?

Well, it would be great to see camels get an ability to rear horses, maybe using shift J for it. I'd really just like to see it added so I can make a character named Dwayne Johnson and ride a camel
