    Yes they are but should 1 unit be all thats needed? I'm no expert so I don't really know all I can say is that it was very easy to kill them playing against the AI anyway I guess thats the main problem the AI does not screen them.

    Yeah, I suspect that they would be much more effective if the AI would screen them so they don't break and run amok.

    When I fought elephants I had a bit of trouble with them until I flanked them with some psiloi and then they basically crumpled and ran for it... since it was a sally battle this meant they tried to storm back through their own gates and a horrible mess ensued. :)
