camel riders, just like it says. i hope not.

camel riders absolutely obliterate the lancers even outnumbered

pikes of course as well.

You were probably vsing someone who wasn't microing using the lancers range, camels wont even catch them if the lancer is abused properly

Also try running 30 Kamayuk (anti-cav for inca's) against 30 steppe lancers. Even if you dont micro the steppe lancer, they will win

Steppe lancer speed Speed 1.5

Camel speed 1.45

This is how i know you're talking crap

im not talking crap. your play style obviously is if you cannot deal with a simple cavalry unit. welcome to the game, son.

its funny that you say im talking crap without even actually trying what i said and instead relying on stats. go look IN GAME and make a quick scenario and set like 20 steppe lancers vs lets say 12 camels. camels win with almost all still standing. hell, make yourself have the steppe lancers and micro manage them. still lose. or you just arent very good.

yeah nice reply, no problem with an anti-cavalry unit being slower than a cavalry unit with 1 range. Dont call anyone son ya buffoon

son, you gotta just learn to play. you obviously don't know all there is to know yet, do ya son? im a red-assed baboon btw. not a buffoon. i can kill the steppe lancers no problem. so can many others.

go try what i said before you hurt yourself with the buffoonism

If you had any micro ability, you would destroy those 12 camels without any losses with the steppe lancer, why do you even post in these discussions? Are you bored because you're clueless, or clueless and bored?
Cryptic Nov 21, 2019 @ 5:42pm 
if you would just try what i said..... im not being dense. im being serious. the camel riders kick their asses... why wont you even try it? this leads me to believe you are trolling and not looking for an actual solution. im out son.

I wasn't aiming to offend you, or looking for an argument. You keep saying "try it yourself" and talking about inability to micro when you obviously have not tried micro'ing the steppe lancers properly yourself. Report away 'son'.

MAMELUCS! the best unit, I have tested them in ranked match, and they don't even have to move, they just stand and crush them. Use them in stand ground position
