Catholic Katanks??? They are as rare as evil-smelling Houris or sweet-smelling Danes.Quote:

So, you mean to say camels are not humans? Hmm...:disappointed:Quote:

...interesting. I´ll give them a try ;-)
@ drone: would love that - am not so good (missing some tools ´cos not running on win98se) in extracting parts of those monstrous .txt-files. Thanks in advance!

Hi,
oh yes, and "the realm of camels": in my current Norse campaign (reduxed) the saracenes brought camels as far as Lithuania - seem to spread all over the world....no place to hide, nowhere to run.. encircled by camels and no sweet smelling Houris around...the world is gonna end.... ;-)))))))

Their superiority to humans is widely recognized whereever MTW is played.Quote:

Hi Gilrandir,
those POLAR CAMELS sure don´t look like this friendly DROMEDAR in caravel´s post - changing realms is changing mood. Grim climate, grim character, grim warriors, grim camels...I love to play the Norse!!!

Try telling that to my infantry. Whenever these boys are on a picknick in North Africa (or the Middle East), they have camel-burgers for breakfast, lunch and dinner. So much for da camels... :wink2:Quote:

this Camel-Burger thing only worked because your Inf didn´t meet those Mutated Monsters one encounters faaaar abroad their original homelands. There those merry men would have died terrible deaths - drowning in icy spit, heads split from cleaved(?) hooves, bitten the sword hand away with clattering teeth - no heroic death for a decent warrior.....but this way they are, those Camels....
grinning greetings, daigaku
Just give me a horde of Saharan Cavalry with a few Mamluks and I shall serve you Camel Burgers whenever you wish! :knight:
Hi, edyzmedieval,
...I actually prefer Sahara Horse Steak for my Norse B@st@rds ;-)))
grinning greetings daigaku
I thought camels beat horses. Or does it apply to catholic cavalry only?Quote:
