IRL, they draped chain mail over the war elephants, improving their durability even further. I guess you misunderstood what I was saying.

I agree completely on the Mumakill, I was just replying to you saying that 'War-elephants' were nearly impossible to kill without siege equipment, which was wrong.

War-elephants just needed to be baited into a situation were they were over-stressed such as: extended arrow-fire, pike-formations, spears, cavalry-bait, etc.

Like I mentioned before, Mumakill would be absolute beasts, one of their only weaknesses should be running amok.

(Skirmishers would be spear throwers, btw.) Ok, but how would you kill it? Lava? A catapult? TNT? None are very efficient...
