Title: Christian Nubian and Beja camelry
Post by: nikgaukroger on January 15, 2019, 09:27:21 AM
Wondering why these are Formed Loose whilst all the other camlery in the Africa book such as the Tuareg is Tribal Loose?

Tribal feels right to me as they are not as good for military use as horses.

Also somewhat dubious about them having Melee Expert as they were defeated quite easily by Arab cavalry IIRC.

In fact I wonder if they should be Unprotected - in the FoG:AM lists I noted them as "... poorly armoured or naked and fighting with spears. They were routed with ease by Arab cavalry who, on one occasion, tied bells to their horses to frighten the camels."
