Early Arabic desert nomadic tribes were in conflict with Egypt, Assyria, neighbouring tribes and themselves for almost a thousand years. They were successful for a short period, invading Israel only to be contained by the Hebrew armies under Gideon.

The camel armies were made up of mostly skirmisher troops, with some loose-order foot. The camel archers require care in working out successful tactics for their use. The enormous numbers of skirmishers are a problem. The best situation would involve as many sandy areas as possible.

You must wear down your enemy with missile fire to have any chance of victory. Once the enemy is disordered, the light camels and nomadic loose order foot can get at them. The rule is to shoot, shoot, shoot! Definitely not an army for the faint-hearted.

Enemies: New Kingdom Egyptian, Assyrians, Babylonians, and Midianite Arabs.
