i hate the onagers.... they always seem to fire a round or 2-3 in your own ranks...
having 10 there would be a dissaster.
I wonder.. I see your general icon is a man on a horse, I only see faces there in my game!

[Coldfish]

that's an officer...the army is not being leaded by an general.

If you dont have a general, it gives you a captain to lead. It usually picks a good unit to do that.

It looks like a custom battle. That is an armoured general unit. I only say this because when I play custom battles and pick a general unit the unit card shows the unit and not the general.

I think it's online, look at the name of the "owner" of the troops.

That would explain how he ended up fighting a Senate/Armenia alliance - rare in campaigns!

I call this:

A GREEK TRAGEDY

My army of Julii march upon the last of the Greeks armies. I've drawn them out of their last remaining city, and although I expect victory to be assured, I'm prepared to face a defiant and desparate foe. However, what I was not expecting was for the Greeks to just sulk and refuse to fight. The Greeks, annoyed at having run out of plates to smash prior to the battle, turned their back on my fast approaching army and decided war wasn't for them and rather oddly awaited death to greet them. I don't know if this was a cunning ruse by the last of the Greek commanders: perhaps he thought that us being honourable Romans, wouldn't fight a defenceless foe, and that we'd perhaps just go home and come back another day when the Greeks had restocked on plates or something. Anyway, there was something good on the TV that my army wanted to get back to, so we wanted the battle out of the way and the Greeks would just have to die like the wimps they proved to be in the campaign. And so I gave the order to open fire with all the missiles I had and the Greeks fell one by one without raising a sword in further defiance. I'm thinking of removing all weapons from the Greeks in a future campaign so they die like this all the time.
