I dislike elephants.
There are plenty of units that would be appropriate for Trample. Even warhorses can trample people...

Not all sneaky units have skirmish, nightstalk or ambush. Not all spear units have first-strike...

But I quess you were pointing that we could give trample to some horse-units.

Uh... no they couldn't. How do you trample someone with a chariot?

How about an upgrade for the Lancer that has a trample attack also? (trample on the same attack would be overpowered)

Yes, I'm not saying that every unit that could have trample should have trample, I'm just saying that you don't need an Elephant to have something that can trample.

Not maybe to the lancer i suppose... The lancer purpose is to give the player a choice of getting lots of hitting power now or more hitting power later(grand knight). Or that`s the way i see it
