i think we need more camel based unit son the game
a camel rider armed with a bow to make sfirmishing stuff

cost 4
hp 20
attack 4
range 5
armor 0/0
speed 5
sight 6
same bonus as horse archer
camel fear aura 3 range

I think 16 hp is too low maybe 20

I think camels should be at a speed of 4 since they were not as fast as horses.
Sight should be lowered to 5 - all archers has 5 I think.

This shall be a good unit, a Horse archer/Mameluke hybrid.

yeah all archers have 5 sight now and yeah 4 speed

How about give it 2 p.armor? to make it diff and makes it stronger against horse archers cause of camel fear and 2 peirce armor it becomes powerful against horse archers but you can always use skirm horsemen to counter them. this makes it a more unique unit

Maybe 1 so it won't be too op.
And the rider is vulnerable to arrows, especially when in a camel mount because it moves slow and is weaker than a horse of war.
So a pierce armor of 1 or 0 could be good.

An upgrade could also be good.
Adding more bonuses to its regular stats including armor.
Also a name change I propose : Mameluke archer

mamelukes are different they were slaves who became free or escaped

Yes more like a slave soldier.
But if they used swords why not a bow and arrow?

but I think its better to just make this to a generic camel unit not like the mameluke which is special

Ok camel archer then.
Stats should be ok .
It could only be trained at stables.

should it...? or it should just have a Desert stable building to train at?

this one looks better!

yeah I agree to use this sprite instead

I don't like using that one - Camel head ain't visible
Lemme change the head of the second one and you guys compare which is better.

How's this?
