The Nomads Friendly
The Nomads survive the desert by never stopping. Watch how they do it — there is a lesson in every caravan.
Wandering desert traders who travel in caravans with herds of beasts. Harmless, useful and a good source of pack animals.
Overview
The Nomads are migratory traders crossing the central and western deserts in caravans, herding garru and bonedogs as they go. They claim no territory and pick no fights.
Gameplay Impact
Nomad caravans are a friendly sight — they trade goods, sell pack animals, and never threaten you. Meeting one is a chance to restock and buy a garru for hauling loot.
Joining & Reputation
They stay friendly through fair trade. Attacking a caravan is both profitable and a quick way to make a harmless faction hostile — rarely worth it.
Military Strength
Caravan guards can defend against light bandit raids but the Nomads are not a military faction. Survival, not conquest, is their doctrine.
Best Uses
Best for: buying pack animals (especially garru), mobile restocking, and learning desert travel routes.
“Fight at chokepoints. Being surrounded, not being outmatched, is what kills squads.”
