Baaah, no editing allowed this time again?

@ centurio: Holy god that is incredible!!

which side are you: Baktria or maks?

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.

Also yes centurio that RULES

[Olaf Blackeyes]

I call this one The Broken Gate


EDIT:I need to change this to the cropped one.

[IrishHitman]

Jaysus Olaf, I hope those weren't your troops....

[Tarkus]

Wow...not to make judgments too early here, but...
We're off to a rousing start!!! Both great screens but Centurio, in particular...that's an amazing shot!

Gonna be another tough one this month...

2 vs 2 in the Steppes





No big struggle from me for once ^^

[Megas Pyrrhos]

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.

[Antinous]

Nice!!! Your leader is a lucky man.

[Megas Pyrrhos]

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

-Crop out the UI (though too much cropping may get your pic disqualified)
-No Elephants

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.

[Βελισάριος]

O, how are the mighty fallen

[Antinous]

Awesome shot man!!

[Subedei]

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

[Mediolanicus]

I'm going minimalistic this time, just like SwissBarbar.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Chiswick! Fresh Horses!

And a balloon for the first to notice a little something.

Cheers!
Heheh. Note to self: when crowd has spears or other pointy bojects, do not plunge.
And thanks Anitnous.

Great shots everyone!
Let the fierce competition begin.

[Antinous]

[the man with no name]

[Vasiliyi]

"No Sir! Watch out!"



Taken from my last battle in my aar. Its cropped, and i dont know if its disqualified but i thought id share.

[ezekiel2517]

Well, my first time participating. I didn't get rid of the map or the cursor (is it possible to remove the cursor when it is in such a place?), but I want to enter the contest anyway

Anyone else smells smoke?

[Megas Pyrrhos]

There's a hotkey to remove the map (i think it's f7 or f8, could be wrong). And as to removing the cursor....if you have photoshop, use the clone stamp tool and replace the cursor's area with the grass around it...only solution i know of...

And nice pic btw, lots of action

Obviously, I chose that one because of the Volcano... it made me feel a sense of hurry
