Natives

[lenin96]

When I said native factions before I meant tribal factions as well like in America which was misleading, what about a native faction in Central Asia, the Russian Empire hadn't taken it by the starting date, so maybe they could add Kazakhs in and create Kazakhstan.

i would not mind that

There is a possiblity that the small tribes will still be represented as mercenary units for the Ottoman, so you might still be able to use Bedouin camelry and other tribal units.

As for a smaller native faction in the Middle East it is a possibility, if you look near the Russia border on the 4th map in this thread you will see two small blobs of colour near the black sea.

We don't know who exactly those factions are (one may be Georgia) so they could be something interesting.

i cant wait to conquer the known world with my armies of camels and elephants as the Mughals

lol. I'd like to ship thousands of camel riding warriors across the atlantic and suprise everybody. That would spice up history class a bit. September 8th, 1760, the Grand Ottoman Invasion of North America begins, turning the French and Indian War into a whole 'nother beast.

I wouldn't mind that.

You may want to consider landing in Mexico or California rather than on the eastern seaboard though.

Use those bonuses while you can before you get up into the woods…

Camels and elephants would have led to some very interesting skirmishes between the colonists and the Native Americans.

I wonder how easy it will be for factions such as the Mughal or the Ottoman Empire to build specialist beast units like camels and elephants? If they can grab a colony in North America and then start churning out camelry it will be utterly rediculous.

Ideally I hope that elephants and camels can only be recruited in regions in which they live wild/have a very long history of being bred.

Camels should not be trainable in America, unless CA intend to include North America's extinct species of camel the camelops. It only died out 10,000 years ago, there could still be a few knocking around somewhere.
