Nomads

Nomads are a race in Driftland introduced in the free Driftland 2.0 add-on.

Background
Nomads are leaderless outlaw rebels composed of members of all four races. They believe the new mage order established by the mage-rulers at the conclusion of the Driftland single-player campaign is an attempt to restore the power balance that destroyed the planet. The mage-rulers view them as barbarians and seek to exterminate them.

Gameplay
Nomads differ from other races in that their units are controlled directly. They can only build military buildings, and the only resources they spend are gold, mana, and Points of Progress. They can unlock Paths of Progress upgrades to convert other resources to gold and mana.

Nomads can build four different types of nomad camps which provide unit recruitment and produce gold, mana, and Points of Progress. The four types of nomad camp are: The type of camp is automatically determined by the terrain it is built on. Nomads can also built palisades and the four race-specific types of watchtower.
 * Gold camps: hire Human units and provide a gold production bonus.
 * Mortar camps: hire Dwarven units and can be upgraded with Points of Progress to add a mortar attack.
 * Dark camps: hire Dark Elf units and can be upgraded with Points of Progress to heal by draining enemy units in range.
 * Magic camps: hire Wild Elf units and can be upgraded with Points of Progress to increase their magic range.
