Additional units [Garamantians]

Description
More units for the Garamantians
This mod adds two units for the Garamantians:
  • Desert Ambushers
  • Tuareg Javelin Riders

Unit stats in the screenshots are without upgrades/experience, because they are from custom battles while the cards are taken from a campaign.

Desert Ambushers
Hybrid unit: spearmen with javelins.
This light spearman has no shield, but with a nice charge bonus, guerrilla deployment and javelins to throw is a unit to be feared.
Can be recruited from Tier 4 military building for minor settlements.

Tuareg Javelin Riders
Missile cavalry
This unit can throw javelins and is slightly better in melee than most missile cavalry, thanks to the spear that they carry and the scare horses ability.
Can be recruited from Tier 3 (and above) military building for minor settlements.

Possible updates
These units can be balanced in the future. I'll test them in my campaigns and if I notice something strange I'll change their stats/abilities.
Feel free to suggest some changes to make them better or more balanced!

except Sun, Moon and Zodiac, others are all historical.

Moorish spearmen:decent spearmen with shield, chainmail and helmet.

Armored desert cavalry: chainmail melee cavalry.

tribal skirmishers: foot javelinmen with shield and sword.

desert legionaries: Roman style heavy infantry, like Bosphoran infantry in vanilla.(Many Auxiliary Roman soldiers come from Africa.)

palace guard: strong heavy spear infantry, with bows.

axe marauders: shield axemen raiders with javelin.

Sun's berserker: armored axemen like Zafar sentinels of Himyar, can go berserk.

Moon's hunter: cataphract camel archers.

Zodiac harbingers: heavy camel cataphract lancers with bows.

Some unit ideas for this amazing mod, people sometimes forget this is a great faction.

desert archers: nice archers that could compare with Persians.

heavy skirmishers: armored javelinmen with a large shield and sword.

caravan guards: medium swordsmen with large shield and a khanda in hand.

noble cavalry:fast armored melee cavalry like Tagmata, swift, fast, and tough.

noble swordsmen: armored swordsmen wielding heavy spatha, strong and wearing fancy robes.

slave hunters: very light melee cavalry that could ignore terrain and deal huge damage with shotel.(Garamantians are famous for their skill of hunting slaves.)

Moorish infantry: decent swordsmen with shield, short sword, chainmail and helmet.

Thank you! Probably I'll add more units in the future when I get new ideas.

Nice mod , hopefully more units in the future. Garamantian roster needs more units.
