The Horde will enslave everyone

Description

Masterful hunters and herdsmen, but hopeless farmers. Nomads have a modest diet, and don't even need to wash dishes. Their villages grow incredibly fast because they can enslave some of their defeated enemies, and they can get more money by robbing caravans. However, their artisans and weaponsmiths are very lazy workers. Nomads like light armor and have poor vitality.
