Armoured Elephants are a type of heavy cavalry unit available to Carthage and Persia in Rome: Total War and Total War: Rome Remastered.
Description[]
Armoured elephants are the most fearsome creatures to be found on a battlefield. Little can stand before these armoured giants.
Each elephant has heavy armour that protects it from missiles and hand-held weapons. The driver uses the elephant itself as a weapon, guiding it as it tramples and gores its way through the opposition. The archers snipe down into enemy formations, weakening opponents before the inevitable clash.
Armoured elephants can run amok, causing havoc in the process to anyone nearby.
