Age of Strategy Forums

I dont know if i need to put this here or in issue forum,but here is the point

Mameluks were special saracen units wielding a non-straight sword,but were not melee units!They threw swords instead
(In this game range should be 3 squares) Thats all i wanted to say,thank you for your time!

I'm sorry but my search engine can't find anything to support this claim..

Mind giving a source.

So you tell that mameluks where mounted units that throw non-straight sword to enemies? Tell me how this work?

Well, some swords have an aerodynamic shape, I believe there were African swords built with an entirely akward shape that makes them travel further with more velocity as opposed to regular swords used by Europeans when thrown.

They threw Arabian-like shortswords from a camel,and didnt have a shield

The swords looked like boomerangs,but didnt actnlike them

Mamelukes in Age of Empires 2 throw their swords. Just make the range 2 and deal on normal armor I think. Maybe we also need a new melee camel unit (I got a name for it Dromedarii=Roman Empire camel cavalry).

Axe throwers have range of 3,mameluks should have 3 as well

will be in in next
