The Camel Corps is the Nubian unique Ranged Cavalry of the Enlightenment Age that replaces the standard Carabineer.

Overview

Compared to Carabineers, Camel Corps are statistically identical, but they do +35% damage against Light Infantry and +20% damage against Gunpowder Infantry, so the innate ability of Ranged Cavalry as raiders combined with this advantage makes Camel Corps great counter-raiders as well.
