Camels

Irrespective of the number of humps.....

Are there any camels across the ranges without riders or baggage that could be used as draught animal (i.e. pulling a wagon)? The nearest I've seen is the dismounted British colonial camel corps but the beasts are kneeling down.

Also has anyone had a go at creating a camel mounted Queen Zenobia for ancient Palmyrans?

Thanks

Still want Bactrian camels. Bigger, hairier and nastier than Arabian Dromedaries, and able to carry or haul far heavier loads. Without their burdens and by adding a bit of green stuff they could adapt in all kinds of ways...

Longer term, Afghan camel-mounted cannoneers for use against Mughals would be nice. Not quite yet though - my lead mountain is starting to grow again with existing projects. :(
