However they have better stats and gain [[Dodge]] in the middle game, becoming even more dangerous. In the late game [[Nomad Leader|Nomad Leaders]] and other elite enemies appear, especially in large Nomad camps. [[Nomad Archer|Nomad Archers]] can be numerous, but Nomads still often prefer to approach despite their ranged superiority, and Archers reposition themselves. Their camps have no walls, and their behavior does not change when you are attacking a camp. Nomads don't use [[Throwing Weapons|throwing weapons]], instead they [[Throw Dirt (5 fatigue)|throw sand in your face]] to lower initiative and damage output. == Description == Nomads are free people of the south who chose to live outside of the control of any city state. They travel the barren desert from one source of water to the next, hunting and scavenging, and living the freedom that they chose. Faced with surviving in this harsh environment, many nomads turn to banditry. It’s not all of them, of course, but as a mercenary in this world it’s who you’ll be dealing with most of the time. Nomads have a roster of their own, roughly similar to that of northern brigands, but with their own equipment and a unique skill. Home in the desert and experienced in desert warfare, they use the environment to their advantage. Quite literally, in that they may throw sand in the faces of their opponents, inflicting the [[Distracted (Status Effect)|‘Distracted’]] status effect. A distracted target will inflict less damage and have less initiative for a single turn. Nomads populate the vast southern deserts surrounding the city states of the Gilders. {{Navbox Enemies}} [[Category:Factions]] [[Category:Enemies]]
