    1. 1000+ troops on each side (I'm with Rilder on this...don't use full stack legions.)
    2. >.7 Battle odds (odds obviously in favor of the enemy)
    3. Not be the attacker (is that correct? I have to be the defender?)
    4. Battlepoints = >3 (Where can I find this info out at???)
    5. At least 30% of enemy killed (not a problem...usually kill almost all of them)

    Is there a requirement that the general has to kill x amount of enemy in that battle to be Imperator?

    Am I missing anything?
    The size of troops is based on your unit size settings (small, normal, large, huge). There's no requirement that you be the defender.

    I simply have to protest against this injustice. My general has just destroyed single-handedly 5 Seleucid stacks in one turn. They lost a little less than 10000 men (everything basically, I play on Huge) and 8 generals. You mean this isn't worth a triumph?!

    Maybe this comes because of the fact that none of them registered as Heroic? Because something's wrong with this in my game. I remember defending a fort with 850 hastati against a 4000-strong gallic horde, killing nearly all of them and getting only a Clear victory

    That depends on the battle odds. 1,000 elite troops vs. 4,000 crappy troops does not give you battle odds of 1 to 4.

    Are the triumphs working? I have a couple of generals who have had their names changes, seen the elephant, conqueror of xxx, vanquisher of xxx, popular and actually have 5 and 4 command stars each in the camapaign map. After getting the message "they must be named imperator by their troops...." one has had 4 heroic victories and the other 3...each case more than 1000 enemy troops and mine not always. Been both attacker and defender. for a few turns now, i have kept the last settlements of those factions alive and been funding them to build troops!!! but no "triumph" yet!!!

    Also I know for sure the battle odds in each case where always less than 1:1 (i pull out troops from teh army if i think i might get better odds)

    Anyone got triumph in 0.81a?
