    Default Battle Lions

    I was watching the Rome Total War Developer session the other day, and these pictures came up:


    I was wondering wether anybody had any idea as to what lions would be doing in the game.

    Which video was this? And what the presenter, the guy with white shirt on the right, is saying? Post the video link instead of a freeze frame will help.
    Riddle me this, riddle me that:
    Who was my first commander?
    How many of me are active right now?
    And who drank a Delacourt '27 when received the commandership of me?

    hmmmm i beleive that there might be a link with the gladiator helmet and the lions, perhaps we will be able to see the units in battle together, using lions to attack your enemies ,

    or perhaps we will actually get to see some games in the Colosseum where the loser gets eaten by lions


    either way lions are the best

    You cant link images directly from your computer. You can do this though:

    Go here www.imgur.com
    Upload images > Computer > Select images you want to show >Start Upload > Copy "BBCode (message boards & forums) code to your forum post"
    Will work then.

    Like this:


    Btw you cant edit your original post, you need at least 25 posts in order to edit.

    That's probably it. That would also explain the gladiator helmet. I sincerely hope that Rome II won't see the return of gladiator units.

    Nah It might be cool if, as in Medieval II, your Eastern (or even Roman if he fought in the East) commander might get a lion as a 'new pet trait' and if it would be modelized in battle scenes. A fancy lion with a collar standing aside your favorite general and dismembering any attacker :3

    We need a unit of He-Men riding on lions and charging at enemies

    I guess fully armored war lions are there to satisfy the history buffs.

    I think it's for the arena, like a cutscenes.

    They're probably just for gladiator shows. I recall that some nation once deployed lions in a battle, the lions immediately turned around and attacked their own troops instead of going for the enemy.
