Role, availability & values
His profile lists 1,000 hit points, 40% ranged resistance, 6.75 speed and 15 Line of Sight. The hand attack deals 30 damage every two seconds; Trample deals 23 damage in an area of effect of 3 every two seconds; siege deals 40 damage at range 6 every three seconds. He can claim Treasures, build Trading Posts and regenerate health. Saharan Wind increases the speed of nearby allies.
Matchup & timing
Use the aura to help nearby troops reposition, and keep Ahmad close enough to support the force without letting anti-cavalry surround him. Trample is useful against clustered targets, while his hand attack is a single-target option. Scout before using him to claim a Treasure or construct a Trading Post; the battle’s scripted objective and enemy positions determine how far he can safely move from the main army.
A scenario hero rather than a standard cavalry recruit
Ahmad al-Mansur appears as a character in The Battle of the Three Kings. The unit profile gives combat and utility values for that scenario; it does not add him to a civilization’s normal cavalry production. His historical identity as the Saadi Sultan of Morocco is part of the battle setting, while the player-facing value is the speed support and mobility he brings to its scripted army.
