History[]

The War Elephant was a rider mounted on an elephant in a military role. Before, being used in battle the Bull (male elephant) would be captured in the wild and tamed to serve its military purpose. When matured it would be paired with a rider, added armor, and sent to the front lines. For armor they would put either cloth or metals depending on the situation. Because the elephant could withstand a line of spears, unlike horses, it was favored for breaking enemy lines. Later, they would add archers, artillery, or supplies using the elephant as the carrier.


Tips[]

  • It does splash damage to units in roughly a 120-degree arc in front of it.
