I am not sure if there are references to back this up, but did indian peoples use elephants to batter down gates and if so could this be implemented?

I think a proper 2 handed pikeman skeleton should be used similar to the one used for the parthian infantry which have the bow and spear (i think they used two hands to hold their spears)

I think you can already use elephants to batter down a gate, can't you? Or did that get changed?

You couldn't use elephants to batter gates, only wooden walls.

Sure you can. I've done it plenty of times.

You can use them to batter all gates in theory. In practice, however, if you try to batter gates of a stone wall or above, your elephant unit will get destroyed.
