Some Questions from Dumpy

[Major Robert Dump]

1) Does the camel vs horse bonus apply as a bonus to the camel or a penalty to the horse, and is it a melee bonus/penalty or a "spook" factor bonus/penalty? If it is the spook factor does it affect allied horse units, both your own and other friendly players?

2)In SP mode, is there an ongoing support cost for spies and assasins like there is for troops and buildings? I have at least 75 assasins alone in my current game and I'm wondering if it is pinching my profits.

3)Why am I so cool?

1) The camel factor is implemented as a combat bonus to the camels, and a penalty to the horses, on the basis that the horses are harder to control in the presence of camels.
I thought about making it a morale factor, but morale is really the feelings of the riders, not their animals. Also having it as a combat factor gets the effect accross more clearly.

2) I don't believe there is a support cost.

3) I often wonder that myself.

Thx LongJohn, I've been looking for that answer too. I'm not sure whether its in the troopstat, or strat guide, but what is the figure for this bonus?
