Camel Lancers – Conqueror's Blade T4 cavalry unit

Overview

Heroic lancers on armoured camels, 12 riders for 215 leadership. Braced, they shrug off almost all control and block 50% better. Horses are scared of camels, so enemy cavalry charges just stop. Fire is the problem: they take 50% more burn damage.

Strengths

Braced: immune to control (except fire), +50% block
Stops enemy cavalry charges
Charge: +200% against units, +50% against shields
Lots of HP behind scale armour

Weaknesses

50% more damage from fire
Only 12 riders, every loss counts
Poor on hills and in towns

How to Play

Wedge formation.
Brace when the enemy push starts. Don't face-tank it unbraced.
Enemy cavalry coming? Stay braced and let them run into the stop.
When their push is over, Charge: +200% charge damage against units, +50% against shields (12s cooldown).
Then brace again and repeat.
Never near flamethrowers or incendiaries.
Put shield infantry on the flanks while they brace.
Flat, open ground. Bad on hills and in towns.
