    Because elephants were not very high on our priority list of things to work on, since they look decent enough.

    But I hope that at least EB will feature Indian elephants for Seleucids and African ones for Carthage and Ptolemies ?

    We are indeed using the Indian Elephant model/skin that CA left us, and have plans for another Indian Elephant unit.

    Didn't they only ride Indian elephants because African Elephants are too volatile? I swear I read that somewhere.

    Well, people like the Seleucids rode Indian ones because they were the nearest to hand. Naturally the Carthaginians rode African ones because they were the nearest to hand for them. But I'm not sure about elephants' personalities. African ones might be more volatile.
