do you know who gets the canon elphants

and will the english get muskets

Well I know that the Timurids will have the cannon elephants.Maybe other factions will have them too, but in my opinion only the Timurids.

i was thinking what advantages the timurids might have, unit-wise, however this canon's on elephants business. I dont believe that you'lll be able to fit a canon on an elephant, and im excited to see how it will look in the game.

In the long run, more rules will be made to M2:TW after clans and players get their bearings of the game.consequently; if one rule states that no canons on elephans allowed, it would look pretty strange to say: max 7 knights max 3 art and no canons on elephants. for the good of the MP community i hope there's going to be one name for those things

In a thread about cannon elephants, someone mentionned the possibility that the cannons on the elphants wont be much more then big arquebuses, wich would fire smaller ammunition then what normal cannons did, but still big enough to cause damage.

As for the english, of course they will have muskets. what do you expect?

There are screenshots of the cannon elephants. What is silliest about them is not the cannon (which isn't actually very big although it is larger than a musket) but the fact that the rider appears to be inside the pachyderm's neck.

it looked like egypt will be getting them as well and will the english get muskets

**Chuffy** · 09-24-2006, 15:44

Why wouldn't the English get muskets?

Use a bit of common sense now, Supreme Shogun.

**Sun of Chersonesos** · 09-24-2006, 19:01

....Imported from the East, where they were actually used. All these units were, more or less, real. Truth is stranger than fiction.
