Do you have a favorite?

The one I fought in 1985 at a tournament which had like vs like, Mauryan Indians vs Mauryan Indians in the first round. I kicked butt!

Seriously…..
I have refought Zara, particularly because the Carthaginians had such poor quality elephants, but a lot of them. I used Airfix Zoo Set #2 elephants, with Numidian cavalry smooshed onto their necks.
Hint. "Irregular D" elephants are not a game winner.

So I like Zama.

+1 AussieAndy.

I still hope someday to further look into the Battle of Cuito Cuanavale – Cuban T-55s versus South African Olifants.
