That pic OMAC postel is a dromedar, not a camel. Camels have two bulges while dromedars have one. Forgive my bad english.

The dromedar would be more thematic for deserts and the camel for mountains, different tribes perhaps? Generally I think this nation should have more dromedars than camels. Camel should have frost resistance rather than waste survival, other way around for dromedar.

They also look different.

Dromedar:


Camel:

Yep, so my point is they shouldn´t be called "camel archers" or the like. Better to call them "Beduin archer" or something. BTW I´m not sure that beduins ever used bows. I think not actually. Arab archers should probably be on foot from a historical POW.
