I read about war elephants on Wikipedia, and I know it may not be that accurate, but it said that some war elephants had a specially made swords attached to their tusks. I think it would be a cool feature to add. er... you realize how heavy a tower constructed to support 9 archers plus a driver would be, yes? I don't think it would willingly let you stick that thing on it whether it likes you or not. You would probably have to bind it down in order to put the tower on. As far as swords on the tusks, it is an interesting idea, but those would have to be very large, and I would suspect would place a rather large amount of extra weight on the poor mumak. While it is very possible, and could very ... you know what, they are sticking the towers on them in the first place, I doubt they would care about weighting down the things heads with hundreds of pounds of metal The only thing that a war elephant would likely have had were spikes on a large ring (which can be seen in the movies). Irl, the most noteable uses of war elephants were by the Mughal Empire, but they trained their elephants to impale people with their tusks, and while the person is stuck on the tusk, use their trunk to rip them off of it (very gruesome).
