    I have over 15,000 screenshots (no kidding) and don´t really have the time to go through them all looking for a really good one, so I´ll just put something in for funs sake.

    King of the Hill


    You see that guy in the middle with the shield up high? He´s really just in the middle of an animation to defend against a Pontic attack, but since he has higher ground it looks kinda wierd. To me it looks like he gesturing to, like you know, "follow me!", or something like that. Eh, I don´t know, maybe I´m reading to much into it.

    I don't come here a lot any more. You know why? Because you suck. That's right, I'm talking to you. Your annoying attitude, bad grammar, illogical arguments, false beliefs and pathetic attempts at humour have driven me and many other nice people from this forum. You should feel ashamed. Report here at once to recieve your punishment. Scumbag.

    Appo, I think we have a winner. Your's is simply gorgeous. Loving that centerm dude. I think with a bit of editing, that could look wonderful. (removing the banners and other witchcraft)

    Yup, it's a pity you guys run withouth Anti-Aliasing, I think AA improves RTW battles VERY much, especiall those phalanx spears no longer have that awful "staircase effect"...

    Yeah Appo's picture is awesome. I'd rename it to "King of the Hill", it gives the picture a much briter title (Guess who the King of the Hill is... :P)
    BLARGH!

    Actually that´s not a bad idea. Done.
    Senshi, I´ve tried using Fraps and such, but it was just too much work. Might try again though, when I get back from London (will be away for a week. Or two).
    CR, I´m afraid I don´t have any good editing tools handy, and even if I did I wouldn´t know what to do with them. Pity really. I´d wish that the Roman banner was situated behind the hill instead, so you just saw the top. That would have been awesome. Especially if it had been right behind the "King".

    @General Appo:

    To me it appears as if the guy is performing some kind of super jump charge (à la "300"), about to slash the poor Pontic in front of him

    But your interpretation is acceptable too, of course

    Honestly when I first glanced at his pic I thought the soldiers were cheering over a victory.

    It's actually from a custom battle in 1.0. I wanted to find out just how the mingle played out in practice. I think the picture conveys the results pretty well.

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    Okay, that's not exactly true. They actually rallied and then defeated the stinking romans, but how much of a mingle it was then I can't really say. It was a fun battle, though.
