    Default Pictures: Death of General

    When the window pops up to say a general has died its sometimes a crucial point. At other times its already all over and just a formality.

    That event passes quickly but there are some good pictures if you can hit the pause quick enough.

    How about this thread for posting any pictures that look good or just meant a lot to you. Add some story if you want but its mainly the picture.

    I would like to start of with a hard act to follow. One of the best Ive captured if I do say myself.



    From the my Egyptian campaign. Fighting my way west across Greece as I move towards Rome. This was the first decisive battle. Byzantium would be the prize if I could kill everyone.

    Please feel free to add yours...and your enemies

    to bad I didn't pay attention to take a screenshot when my roman onagers killed a thracian general with a rock on the 3rd or 4th throw...so the general bodyguard size were about 37 and after i killed the general with onager remained about 32 general bodyguards with no general lol...seems that i took a lucky shot

    It's so sad when a captain runs into water or into a wall of spears.

    Yeah you`re right. A game bug, I guess.

    Didnt realize the enemy general was on the Elephant.



    This was the first battle between the two super powers in my current campaign. Egypt v.s Carthage. Carthage broke our allience and attacked me. I was marching on one of its towns though.

    Seleucia falls. Death of the enemy king. Like the chariot on the left..turning sharply with one wheel in the air. Chariots are terrible in cities...only the plaza of big towns offers the space they like to run around in.
