a few questions... Got spare money?

Hi!new here jus a few questions:

1.Will camels counter heavy cavalry or mounted cavalry?

2.when did Umm al quwain become and independent country?i reckon its an emirate in the UAE

3.will there be any transporation units?trucks and apcs for example?

4.How will towns work?is it like Rise of the dragon were you build a town and when you march your army out of the town it will switch to "another" map?or will it be only one map that shows you everything?

now a few suggestions:

1.how about giving the helicopters and upgrade(like in modern you have a heuy but in inofrmation an apache or commanche.

2.i would like to suggest 2 uniqe tanks for the egyptians and turks and that would be the t-55 and merkava tanks,egyptians t-55 would be crappy but cheap and fast to build while the merkava for the turks is heavy and very powerful but takes time to build,now you'll say"merkava is an isreali tank"yes but turkey imports them.

3.how about nuclear powerd subs that fire missiles?

4.Also camels had a bad smell and horses hate the smell,so how about giving the camels an ability to make them really smelly to cuase fear to horses combined wth heavy infantry it would be a devastating weapon!

5.i think battleships should be replaced with carriers in modern age(carrier had longer range and more punch ya know).

ok thats all.and thanks in advance for anyone willing to answer.

I am pretty sure that nukes are only going to be fired from silos. Sure, not accurate historically but you have to cut things out if your going to make things fun.

I can't imagine that anyone would ever add this to the game. You wouldn't be close enough most of the time for the smell to effect horses.

The term "Calvary" denotes a person on horseback; so to say he/she is mounted is redunant. Or you have a really sick mind!

Yes, Happy Holidays everyone!

Roads: Roads appear automatically as buildings are placed and caravans make their way between cities. I haven't seen or read anything to make me think they affect other units' movement in any way. Generals can use their "Forced March" ability to temporarily speed up units near them.
