Elephant Thrower: Like Chakram Thrower, but the guy throws Elephants instead of disks. Causes Splash Damage. Mother Elephant: Created at mill. Produces steady supply of huntable Elephants. Jumping Elephant: Navy unit. Slow and innacurate like Mangonel. But if it is able to jump from its own ship into enemy ship, enemy ship sinks instantly. Submarine Elephant: Elephant that swims underwater and slows down enemy ships. Only jumping elephant can kill it. Thug Elephant: Can steal resources from villagers and fishing ships. Can hold total of 500 res at one time. Must bring res back to home TC to give it to player. Loud Elephant: Disorients, slows down and give erratic movements to enemy military and villagers.

2:46 that thing exists in AoE3 and is an unique unit of the Indians there. Its called Mahout Lancer and has huge attack bonus against light infantry units. Possible realistic stretches of the elephant line: 1) Elephant Gatherer - A villager with an elephant, requires 2 pop space, cost 125 food to make, but collects twice as fast and has 7 attack and a bit of pierce armor. Might need a build limit. Similar to settler wagons from Aoe3 or citizens from AoM. 2) Remaining 2 Indian unique units from AoE3 - The Elephant Cannoneer(BBC on an elephant) and the Elephant Gunner(HC on an elephant). 3) Elephant Caravan : Trade unit with a fair amount of ranged attack and HP that can regenerate, and bring a lot of gold if it completes the trip(gold generation should be equal to trade carts)(idea is to make them unraidable or take good investment to bring them down)(also there must be a mechanism to loot a part of the gold from the elephant if killed) Realistically elephants werent used that much for war, just for logistics.

One thing that might be cool is a Heavy Archer Elephant, where you can garrison archers in it similar to a ram for them to fire more arrows and for protection. IIRC longboats were initially intended to do this but they found it easier to just give them a bunch of arrows in the first place. Historically the bigger elephants often had boxes of many archers on top. One thing AoE2 doesn't capture very well historically is the tendency for elephants on the battlefield to run amok when startled. I know this will never be implemented because it will be frustrating to the player, but it would be cool if when an elephant died or was hit by something like gunpowder there would be a chance for them to turn into a Gaia elephant that started attacking anything nearby, and would automatically convert any other nearby elephant to Gaia. Could make for a cool campaign where you're supposed to escort elephants to the battlefield while keeping them safe from gunpowder or some other hazard.

I'm incredibly surprised you didn't think of the one Elephant that makes sense: ELEPHANT GURU. Put a Hindu Monk on an elephant! It would also need a proper Hindu name, of course. Can the Indians in the chat help me with this one? 300HP, keeps pace with the elephants, heals them up nice, isn't mogged by silly scouts. Anyway. All elephant units have this in common: SLOWER, BEEFY and COSTLY: Elephant Scout: improved line of sight. Can safely torment wood lines. Trade Cartephant: hauls DOUBLE the gold. Elephant Lancer: +2 melee range, yes please. You see a mass of these, you KNOW all your melee options are instantly thrown off the window. Petardephant: NUKES, YES. Flame Elephant: nah. Mangonelephant: nah. Trebephant: are you being silly? Tuskarl: you're just being silly. Rattan Elephant: you're being sillier. Two-tonic Elephant: 🤣 Mangudelephant: 🤦♂ Elephanttiero: 💀

I always considered the Petard more as a "saboteur" then an explosives guy. Just.... super simplified.

How can we forget about the elephant-riding monk? The Pachydermissionary

I'd love to see the elephant combined with the hand cannon into a war wagon-like unit. The guy on top shoots a hand cannon, but the elephant itself also fires a cannonball out of its trunk.

"Two-Tonnic Knight" is simply genius :'D

Great ideas. While at it, devs should rename the game Age of Elephants 2
