Real life picture of RTW Cataphracts!!!

Looks like a parade cataphract to me. Depends on what you call "real"...

I have to admit that I can't actualy see what is so bad it.

The "real" picture does not have horse armour. I must confess I first thought he meant EB cataphracts, but I see now it's RTW. So the camel cataphracts could actually be such in the game, it's been so long since I played vanilla I can't even remember if they were there.

That city in the background doesn't look completely "real" to me.

HEY!! there ain't nothing wrong with being a tankophile

I knew the 1st pic was some type of artillery but didn't know which one, I though of the Paladin but it didn't look like it. The second I knew it was German from WWII, but was undecided in between an anti-tank or tank, but defenitely NOT artillery.

so... THANKS FOR THE INFO antiochus epiphanes!!!!!!!!

You have cleared my doubts.
