First weapon of mass destruction in history ;)

And it is used very well :D

I bet this was the REAL cause of the fall of the Roman empire ;)

Isn't he an ally of Rome :O?

Mrawr! Micros stuck to a Macros feet one of my favorite scenes x3 though I apply toony physics since Im not fond of blood and death. Excellent work as usual, Im looking forward to more of your work =3

Well, they are not dead this time :P just stuck to his paw. But since it is a war, he will press a bit harder ;)

Heh, yeah, i REALLY love Total War series too. But i usually prefer barbarians (britans, if speak about TWR 2)

I wonder where he managed to get a gear of such size x3

The god Vulcan himself forged it from the fires deep inside the mighty Vesuvius... would make a great myth ;3

And I like the Iceni too :D Their blue color is pretty nice ^.^ although they do not have bows :(

Heh, yeah that would be a good story c:

Hehe would love to wear my armor and stomp around with him l3

You have an armor too :O?

Of course!! I'm a celestial after all x3

What is a celestial :O?

Pretty much the same as a god l3 I can do alot, and its really fun to toy with little ones~

I see ^.^
Really fits yer fursona :3

For honor, glory and most of all, for ROME!

Although I usualy play a greek city state and found the empire with greek gold.

I like their pikemen a lot :3 it is impossible to lose with them if the enemy has mostly melee units :D

The hoplites can also tank eastern archers really easily
Atm I'm doing Cimeria campaign.

Aren't archers faster than hoplites?
Eastern archers, like the parthian archers, are really powerful :O

Ya, but they run uota ammo quickly too.
Hoplites can tank their fire for some time and if you throw in a mercenary unit or two as cannon foder, their archers can't do nuthin'

But, which melee but unit can tank arrows the best? Is it the praetorian guard?

I don't know exactly, but I'd go by this principal, the heavily armoured infantry can take more punishment from range then medium or light and always, always, keep them facing straight toward the ranged attackers, as that was the individual soldiers can protect themselves better.
There is also the whole faction thing, where romans can set up Testudo whitch makes the unit almost invonarable to archers and greek Hoplites can make a Hoplite Phalanx, that can tank ranged, as long as they are directly facing them.

Also, I gues being a giant tiger is a category on it's own, can't imagine arrows and spears being much more then mosquito bites...

I didn't know that hotlines could tank ranged. But I knew that the testudo formation was good to tank that. Does that mean that every unit who has a shieldwall ability can defend themselves against arrows?

And yes, Mr Tiger will not really be hurt by the arrows, but the pikes though... since he is bare feet ... :/

Yes. All units with some kind of shieldwall can tank arrows, how well though, that depends, again, on armour.

I guess that the armor is only to add more weight xP

Yes xD that in case they do not learn their lesson from the first stomp :P

Ahahahaha xPPPP a heavy lesson xP

I wouldn't mind being crushed but those paws ^3^!

Mr Tiger wouldn't mind crushing you too ;)
Just stand in front of his paw and the rest shall come :D

Mmm those paws look so soft
