Armored Camels?
« on: March 02, 2010, 00:31:42 »
Im not sure if this should be here... but I didn't know where else to put it.
I am working on more customs and I have a question:
Does anyone know if camels can fit into hoarse armor.
Specifically the head.
Thanks in advance!

What horse armour are you talking about - the modern ones or the older ones ???

Modern,
It looks like it will fit more to the camels head.

but now I am curious for curiosites sake! ;D

Unfortunately the horse armor doesn't work with the camels.  Yes, it will fit over the head, but I tried the new horse armor (which is wider than the old armor) on the old camel (which is narrower than the new camel) and the camel body was still too wide.  A camel cataphract is a great idea, but it just won't work using the horse armor.

So the heads work, but not the body?
That is good to know! I did not really think the body would work...
Thank you very much!

You guessed exsacly my plan Justindo! ;)
Cataphract Camels will soon be an addition to my Romans, and/or my sisters Egyptians.

Hi

You could do it and it would not be hard. I amy even try it when I get 10 minutes free time . All you will have to do is heat up the cover and open it up and it looks like it will fit. The old and the new ones are about the same.

interesting custom idea  :wow:

Hmmm...
Sticking them up is an interesting idea,
But I need to fit the saddle and klicky on there as well, so I will probably just cover the head.
Thank you Rasputin!
