Pre-Islamic Arab 2205 - Mandatory troops in allied contingent

[Princeps]

Hello,

The list has two compulsory troop types:

• Camelry  (8-30) with the note: Camelry are only compulsory if any camels are used
• Warriors (18-72) with the note: Warriors are not compulsory for allied contingents.

The list also lists Picked Warriors as a separate entry (not an upgrade from Warriors) with the note: A command may not have more than one TuG of picked warriors

I have two questions relating to using this army for an allied contingent:

• Does this mean that a camel-less contingent has no compulsory troops?
• Could an allied contingent take one unit of Picked Warriors without taking any Warriors?

Best,
Antoine

Yes.  As an example, an allied contingent from this list might include a TuG of cavalry and a TuG of picked warriors and not have any camels or warriors.
