Well, as it turns out, the general was the next to die, and everyone just sort of...routed. Thankfully, the slingers had the presence of mind to flee from the scene just before it happened and were able to get back into the settlement and end the sally.

He did pretty well, though:

And you would have voted for it, Burebista? Too bad that competition is over. :(

I already have a screenshot for the February competition, though.

If you crop out the HUD and the "Pause", sure I would have.

I'm collecting screens for February too. See you there, eh?

that's one great shot, my soldiers never did that so far

i agree, this would be a great shot for a competition, keep it in mind for march ^^

Wow. Now thats strange.

I haven't seen any hoplites act like that - maybe because I prefer to have them run over by horsemen...
I myself wonder if this "hoplite-circle" can be achieved by command or is it a rare coinsidence
