Ahh, good to know, I was wondering how it related to the old Elephant Archer unit. Thanks for the info.Dom Pedro II said:Mithadan, in answer to your question, those aren't turbans but rather round, gold helmets. The Elephant Archer is not actually Carthaginian at all but more of a generic elephant unit that from what Xen said sounds like it was used by Carthage's Iberian allies, or might have been used by one of the toss-up groups who hadn't really taken sides yet... In the epic game, I'm using this new Elephant Archer to replace my old one as a generic elephant unit.
W.i.n.t.e.r said:Iberian allies ? U mean Numidian allies. Carthage in fact undertook great struggles to purchase trained Elephants from the rival Numidian factions.
Iberia = Spain (no elephants there)![]()
Well if they ever did they would have had to import them from somebody over in Africa, since Iberia is in Europe and since the Mamoth there haven't been any pachidermes living here.Xen said:bot true; elphant sub types, such as pygmy elephants, and, going back further, assorted type sof mammoths ranged all accross europe
that said, i commented that if the Iberians did have elphants, the art work shown looks alot like what the probabley would have ended up looking like

Gogf said:Great units Kinboat! With all of the Roman units around, I'm sure someone can make a very high quality Punic Wars scenario now.
I agree with Louis, accurately he should thrown his javelinLouis XXIV said:Numidian Cavalry usually threw Javelin, instead of using them in a stabbing motion. Would it be possible to make an alternate attack animation for this?![]()
