Shhh, don't give him ideas. Banzai'll probably put Nazgul, Bradleys, Jedi Knights and Rowdy Roddy Piper into this mod before he's done. I think he said flamethrowing wooly mammoths are next.

Re: Testudo Legionaries

Re: Testudo Legionaries
Hmmm...is it just me or would those guys be pummeled by elephants?

I'm surprised nobody's yet pointed out the most obvious counter, either - doggies! "Let loose the dogs of war!"

Re: Testudo Legionaries
What happened to this thread? I asked a very serious question to a very serious issue, whether the testudo would be in EBII.
Also I am very proud of my katyusha rocket batteries; both fighting with and against.

Re: Testudo Legionaries
Banzai, if you ever did a quick search or actually bothered to read other threads like an intelligent person would, you might have noticed the EB Team's knack at claiming "We don't know at this time" in answer to the many questions regarding Roman units. IMPO, I believe it to be safe to assume that as an answer to your stupid question.
Remember, stupid questions deserve stupid answers, be it spam or otherwise.
Re: Testudo Legionaries
Ouch Meth. That was harsh. What happened to you man, you used to be about peace, love and spam.
Re: Testudo Legionaries
Don't listen to him, he was probably joking... Your work is awesome Banzai
About your question, I'm not sure, I bet the EB team doesn't know yet heheh, so I wouldn't wait for an answer now hehe. Your question was not stupid.

Re: Testudo Legionaries
well Benzai to be honest (now that I looked), even though the testudo is clearly innovative, and I like the idea of porting a testudo into M2TW, it has one small problem (judging by the pics): the testudo is ineffective-the men seem to be keeling over. Is it possible to alter bonuses per formation in M2TW, or is it hardcoaded? if hardcoaded (I suspect so), the I'm afraid it won't work in M2TW.

It is hard coded but Testudo is in the engine I believe.
