In the game's words
How to use it
The Gatling Camel is a mercenary artillery unit. Like the Gatling Gun, it is especially effective against infantry but vulnerable to cavalry and other artillery.
History
When the Gatling Gun made its way to Africa and the Middle East during the 19th century, it was first used by European powers to overcome much larger forces. However, the so-called Gunpowder Empires of the Middle East soon adopted this technology and began to mount Gatling Guns atop camels as a replacement for the zamburak, an artillery piece that was then gradually rendered obsolete by its more effective successor.
