    Unfair disadvantage for those without Photoshop(ping skills).

    Although a seperate competition for edited pictures only probably wouldn't be a problem if there are enough enthousiasts. As long as people don't stop competing here because of that...


    Hmm, I still have to take a good enough screeny to come even close to the masks...

    We are both the Maks in this shot. I played the Royalist part (Mak general), whereas a Baktrian general I teleported to Saba (where that battle took place) played the part of Zaikedenthes, an important member of the ruthless Aphetaios family. I recreated his army for Baktria with console command and then attacked it with a loyal family member. It is an incredible experience to fight you own army and get obliterated! It's great to see that you probably not only were so successful with that particular army because the AI is stupid, but also because this army is just incredibly mighty, so that even the AI manages to win with it.

    Here's mine: I call it "Two Pokes and a Miss"



    Here's a little screenie of what my campaign map looks like at the moment:

    [IMG][img=https://img3.imageshack.us/img3/7396/epeiros225bcfa2.th.jpg][/IMG]

    Klaudios' son, Sokleion, was ambushed near the Epeirote-Getic border with his bodyguard of what I've dubbed in-game as "Hysteroi Hoplitai", armed in the Romani fashion with kopis' and a pair of ap javelins.

    Two getic generals tried to kill the heir to the throne, but failed.

    Final Edit: May take a a little time for my pic to load.

    The soldier to his right side.......was not. He got wasted after another poking of the spearpoint later after the screenie.

    No elephants? Hehe, is that the instant ticket to success now? What an unusual rule. But yes, screenshots with elephants do tend to win quite a often.

    @ Burebista: Great shot....lokks a bit like the General was "crowd surfing" in a very unhealthy manner! Centurio´s pic is also very good!
