Freed slaves were included to prevent city revolt CTDs. If these still occur in M2:TW, I guess they will be in. If not, they'll probably be removed for a real combat unit.

Female Sarmatian and Briton units were discussed for EB1, but didn't make the cut. Since there is an even greater shortage of unit slots in M2:TW, I doubt we will be seeing them here. Also, females wouldn't have fought in separate units, but mixed in with the men folk. It's possible to add in female bodyparts in the unit skin files, but unfortunately there is no way of preventing the engine to combine a female torso with a moustachioed head. Also, this would mean a 1:3 female:men ratio in the unit, which is rather high. It may works for the Sarmatians (it's not like you would see the difference under the clothes they wore), but I suspect most people won't even notice that some of their Sarmatian riders are beardless.

In history, Camel warriors generally meant mounted infantry, not cavalry. Camels don't seem to have made very good battle mounts, so I doubt we will be seeing them. I cannot answer your other questions.

Incidentally, to prevent the forum from cluttering up, perhaps you should create a single topic for all your questions.
