    These are the chosen competitors from the EB internal poll. Since there was a tie, I decided to include them, which results in one additional competitor for the public poll. Let the contest begin!

    Elephantes Katraphraktoi Indikoi for me, both original and methinks very beautiful.

    Hm, #2. Sweeping grandeur, nice tone in the colouring... Almost as picked out of a trailer for EB.

    I picked #3: those elephants are so shiny and pretty, and I really like the camera angle.

    I found it difficult to decide between yours and his, it's sort of an action pic which is why people like it.

    Possibly, it is a great pic in its own right after all and that's what seperates it from the others.
    I shall remember that for the next competition and call my next entry "The Action Pic".

    #4. It's got a certain something about it.

    #4. Number 2 has the banners on; this made the difference for me.

    Indeed. The one I liked best wasn't even in the top 4.

    That's probably movie-cam and only available in custom battles...

    Number 4 captures all the gritty-ness and fear that a true phalanx battle probably would, thats what made it my choice; a desperate phalanx indeed.

    Number 2 gives a real nice feeling of "onwards, to victory!" type of deal so yeah....

    Just think of the sunburn. Lucky they aren't gaesatae.

    The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. H. L. Mencken

    I'm not saying mine was the best either :)
    I actually was quite amazed to find it here.
    I only said I thought there were some screens that were better than the one almost everyone is voting for.
