Hi all.
Timurids came right in to my territory above the black sea and this story is what happened next. Some may find it hard to believe but i took a screenshot of the battle results of that first battle with them.
This is the result that shocked me enough to make me want to tell you guys about it. See screenshot.

Believe it or not, 1 unit of infantry and 1 Elephant unit killed all those men on my side. The rest of the AI army did not even move. The 77 men I killed where the infantry escorting the Elephants. But the elephant unit did not lose a single man whilst it totally crushed all 900 of my men.
The Elephant unit started with 33 men and ended with 33 men in that battle.
Ive since engaged them several times and Ive lost every battle. Auto resolving battles usually leads to better results than manually fighting the Timurids.
What I need to win against those Elephants is a unit of armoured Mice. Nothing else even slows them down the Timurid AI must know how powerful they are because its army usually sits back to watch the actual and lets the Elephants do all the work.
I was rather busy halting a Mongol in case and dealing with the English that had occupied france at the time. Plus i was sending units to america to explore. So this attack took me by surprise.
