Re: How to deal with elephants
As Man I got elephant dinner for a full month with this tactic: About 100 longbow archers, Wind Guide + Flamming Arrows. 3 mages casting Howl (the wolfs show up at the sides of the battlemap - distracting the enemy), Swarm and Sleep. I also had a few surviving knights and a large pack of indi light infantry and some surviving man infantry. This killed a large army with lots of infantry and about 40+ elephants.
This was my final battle, close to the source of the elephants - far from my sources of knights (that had been my preferd way to take out small numbers of elephants).
I was lucky and got a indy mage with fire, boosted him and managed to cast flaming arrows. My conclusion; I hate elephants and I do not like people using them!
Go home Hannibal!
