As Romani, I'm seiging Ippone with a solid army when I get attacked by a small general-led Carthaginian army; the much larger city garrison comes out to play with a bunch of spearmen and four units of elephants.
First time I played it, I got pretty badly mauled but pulled it out. CTD. So I load it up again, and this time manage to hit one of the elephant units with a simultaneous barrage from my Balearic slingers and pilum volleys from my principes. They run amok, charge into the next unit of elephants, which runs amok, and so on, until their army is virtually wiped out. Pure luck, but satisfying:

CTD again. Anyway, I've uploaded the save here (http://www.filehosting.cc/file/17268/ippone-rar.html). Let me know if anybody's got some input; I'd hate to go back the ten turns or so, but might have to.
