Mighty Arabyan War Elephants.

War Elephants were a mighty warbeast and cavalry unit deployed by the forces of Araby.

Overview

Elephants are an exotic creature even in Araby for they come from the lush bushlands that lie between Araby and the jungles of the Southlands. The Sultans like to collect all kinds of wild and monstrous beasts, and they eagerly compete against each other when it comes to maintaining the largest and most impressive herd of Elephants. These are ferocious and dangerous creatures, all the more so because each carries a wooden tower upon its back, within which ride Arabyan warriors armed with long spears and assorted missiles that they hurl at their enemies below.
