    Eh, it's fun to run a Roman Legion against them. Massive carnage.

    That's what happens if you're bored, out of rational ideas for the mod and absolutely obsessed with Halo CE...

    Has anyone tried them against elite phalanx yet? It would either be a stalemate or something... funky.

    I tried against elephants (yeah, I know I am a sick man )
    Well I was hoping to see elephants fly , but hellas ... just plenty of elephants kebabs and finally plenty of dead halo men (probably, mostly becasue of their own missiles)

    I guess RTW just can't handle that much "awesome" squeezed into such a small location.. Probably something to do with denying the laws of physics.

    On a more serious note, probably because of the rather large polygon count and the lack of lods or sprites.

    I made 10 and 20 unit stacks. No CTDs, just a lot of dead bodies although I played custom battles only.

    ^-^

    the only problem is the sticky grenade things, whatever their called

    especially as they insist on throwing them when others are already in combat

    ah yeah

    but....when they go into berserk mode you can't control whether they throw them or not

    Ouch... You better not forget to use fire at will then and waste the nades.

    Even if they wasted the grenades, the things are nigh unbeatable. I put 12 of them on 1,000 Pre-marian Romans, and they destroyed them all.
