Isn't it prisoners taken?

I don't think you can kill the prsioners as its just a demo.

Some pics from a Pavia custom battle. Me(England) and HRE v Spain and France. You can really notice the imporved ai in 2 v2 battles as Spain and France mixed their troops together to create a battle line, and even when i managed to divide them the 2 forces mixed to an extent in the 2 armies they made. The ai French also did some nice flanking manouvers with its general. This was a very tough battle, with it ending up being a contest between who could wear down the other side first. For the key part of the battle all i could do was sit and watch. I marched my army out to the clear area alongside the French And Spanish starting position, and began a missile duel before having to advance and engage because of cannon fire.

Early moments of the engagement.



More intense combat. By this time my HRE ally had engaged the other enemy force.



Overview of the battle. I'd just punched a hole in the enemys line, near where the HRE troops are. The French general is massacering some archers i put on the flank.



Tense fighting at the left flank of my line. The HRE general had just been killed.



Fighting in the middle part of my line. The Spanish general was killed not long after this.



The battle nears its end. For a long time the odds had been against me and my ally due to early casualties inflicted by the cannons, but by now things were going our way.



Dead bodies litter the area my army had been fighting on.




The results. Pic also shows the bloodied English general.

Some people may already have picked this up and will think "Who cares?", but I just noticed the Tlaxcalan mercenaries don't wear some garish coloured clothes, so therefore other mercenaries probably won't either. Yay
