I don't really like the idea of getting rid of the elephants simply because I like them but if they are not effective I suppose I could do that. I was thinking of putting the elephants in the middle of the pike line so they couldn't be overlapped to reduce their vulnerability. I also thought that the -1 to cohesion tests from the elephants would be useful.
and that's exactly the way to use then. you won't have any lancers even thinking of attacking unless your pikes are already stuffed.
