Blue Lotus: Total War

[DragoonXXIV]

The camels are part of the demon force, so it's alright if they aren't native to Japan or China. And although they weren't native to China, historically the Chinese loved to import exotic animals to stock the Emperor's gardens, there are texts that suggest that they even had Zebras and Giraffes.

Camels in China or Japan?

China has bactrian camels i believe. They fit in the game pretty well.

Back again. Hope you all had a good Christmas. As Dragoon says, the camels are part of the Demon force although I intend there to be a unit of camel cavalry for the Chinese armies too (they are also going to have a unit of leopard handlers).

Here are two more ‘Chinese’ units from the list, the imperial guard (like the heavy spears but with two swords and plumes) and the Tibetan Infantry with their peacock crests:

that shit is crazy!!!!!!!

Oh yeah, a Mongol faction for the future would be some crazier shit!!!

Ok, I've been thinking over Christmas and the next full faction after the chinese is to be the Indian faction. Here is their army list. Currently titled the Rajpur I could do with some good faction title ideas and unit ideas if you can think of any good ones.

Indian Kingdom:
Infantry
Peasant Infantry (loin cloth, buckler and scimitar)
Rajpur Infantry (ornate turban scimitar and shield)
Rajpur Spears (ornate turban spear and shield)
Gurkha Infantry (powerful close combat troops)
Babur Infantry (ornate gold helmet early cone style)
Babur archers (ornate gold helmet early cone style)
Holy Warriors (dreadlocked with loincloth and club)

Cavalry
Horse Archers/Scouts
Rajpur Lancers (ornate turban spear and shield)
Arjuna Chariots (ornate gold helmet early cone style after hero Arjuna)
Elephant Archers
Elephant Spears
Royal Elephants (ornate white elephant with minaret palanquin)

Special Units
Tigers

This is likely to be the last style of full faction besides the Monks. Mongols, Koreans and a whole number of other strange units will appear as rebels/mercenaries/assorted small scale factions (ie. factions with fewer unit types).

You mean kinda like Dacia or Gaul where they only have like 9 diff units? So you will have the Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Demon, Monk and then a few more with only a few units? That makes sense but Dont you think the Koreans should also be a full army since they are Imperial like? anyway just a thought great spearmen btw
