War elephants
Slingers
Chariots

War elephants - YES
Slingers - YES
Chariots - See if chariots can be added in a reliable manner, but seems like they can.
tesudo formation - No idea, although a slim hope.

No animations have been made yet for these though. Don't know how much we will tweak the M2TW Elephant ones if at all.

I have one more question, will there be a formation for the roman legionares to fight in, like a testudo but they stick together and fight. Romans didnt fight 1 on 1, if i am correct. I think it would be a cool animation to see!

You could put legionaries in guard mode and they'll stick together...

Doesnt gaurd mode just make them hold their posistion if they rout the enemy? This is the type of formation im talking about http://youtube.com/watch?v=wtjszraRCXA&feature=related

Guard mode makes a unit keep its formation as well as hold its ground.
