I've been getting mixed results when using Triarii in battles. I'm tending to use them in a more offensive role as 'heavy javelin' eg against Elephants although I believe they dont throw their weapon but instead they stab. This Triarii has a limited success rate against many other HF and MF units. W...

Is Pike & Shot going get a FOGII type makeover?

I second the advice to throw javelins at the elephant. I think of elephants as good HF who disorder all nearby cavalry, but are vulnerable to missiles and pretty useless once cohesion breaks down. I just beat someone with an army involving 3 or 4 units of elephants, and clicked out before I wrote &...
