My opponent made a few early mistakes. One of them was buying lots of calvary and elephants (and wasting tons of money on said elephants) while fighting a Greek phalanx-heavy player.
As such, I heavily outnumbered the poor guy. Army choice is half the battle, as I hope I've aptly demonstrated with this.
Nevertheless, he made a good show. I made a few mistakes of my own, such as losing a unit of Cataphracts because I forgot to order them to run away from the approaching spearmen. D'oh!
Highlights include:
My general crushed by a falling elephant, which my Silver Shield Pikemen had just killed (may differ slightly in replay).
My archers luring Numidian Mercenaries to their doom.
Routing tons of War Elephants.
Not getting to use the Arm. War Elephants I spent so much money on until the last minute, because I forgot about them.
Cataphracts quickly abandon chasing his slingers to engage his calvary (turning on a dime, almost).
Phalanx to Phalanx action!
Siamese falls helplessly in love with his Logitech Mouse!
This dragon guy is quite right. I've been all over this forum and nowhere does anyone bother to explain what we're supposed to do with these things.
It would just take one or two sentences. Assume we're stupid, ok?

A replay folder will only exist in your R:TW folder if you have saved a replay in the game. If you have not, simply make one called "replays". (without the quotation marks). Then unzip the contents of the .zip file into that folder. Then load R:TW click "load game", then "load battle replay", then select the one from the list and click "load". Then watch and enjoy.
I think that should satisfy all you none Computer nerds out there.
