Need an explanation!!!

Now you mention the combat bonus, that does seem to ring a bell. I remember attacking Jedda, or maybe Arguin or somewhere like that. Anyway it was a village and had a few Camels along with Nubian and Sudanese infantry units. I remember my Desert Cavalry and even my General's Bodyguard doing unbelievably bad against the camels, at one point I thought it was going to end in a humiliating defeat. My cavalry didn't rout though, so it does seem like camels get a better attack than morale bonus.

Now I know this they could be very useful against the horde factions...

EDIT: Still not sure it justifies an upkeep of 300 for Tuareg Camel Spearmen though.
