    That is going to be so laggy, that must be a less than 1fps battle.

    The pictures tell it all, i guess it's so hard on the processor that the computer can't even take a picture properly, let alone actually play the battle.

    Also, Romans didn't use legionary cohorts in 200 or so BC...

    Lol, I like the 20-line roman battle formation. Hastati, Pricipes, Triarii, 'nother Triarii, the realy triarii, more triarii then the triarii triarii, the triarii of the apocolypse...

    This isn't the best nor the most realistic but juist out of curiosity can we see the Carthaginian army?

    the last pics with hastatii etc was the real battle i made. for the carthaginians i have used mercenaries, numidian cavalry, poeni infantry etc. next time i will post the army
    after that, i will work to a new historical battle more correct, the siege of carthage. new units and skin!

    Please do not double post.

    what specs do you have? there must be some horribly intolerable lag happening there.

    lol...it's impressive that you managed to load that up without your PC dying...certainly gives you a sense of the scale ancient battles were fought in

    He hasn't even added the Carthaginians yet, the outcome should be interesting. (I wish my computer could get past 5,500 men without lagging...I seriously need a computer that can handle current games. :disgust )

    I've done that before, with the battle editor. Except I know the limit's of my computer and do not wish for anything to get messed up, so the max I've had was around what, 68,000 soldiers for the Romans, and around 50,000 for the Carthiginians, although I was forced to delete it due to the mass amounts of lag.
