    That would be because the AI used them incorrectly, charging missile troops headlong into a thick mass of people, with javelins no less. Like elephants, the AI has no idea how to use special units.

    The vanilla chariots would die extremely quickly from any missile fire. One volley of slingshots or two of arrows and they would all be either dead or rampaging, including the egyptian general. The higher mass in vanilla made them somewhat more effective at smashing into things though, but they would still die quicker in melee. Perhaps you should try a missile chariot charge against principes in vanilla and compare.

    I do NOT answer PM requests for help with EB. Ask in a new help thread in the tech help forum.

    I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image. - Stephen Hawking
