The pike formation would be destroyed by the archers on its' back, while skirmishers have no way to attack it before they get swatted. IRL, they draped chain mail over the war elephants, improving their durability even further. You are WAY overestimating elephants my friend. By the Medieval era (The time a few small nations put mail on elephants) They were already past their effectiveness. Pike formations, Knights, and Archers could all bring them down, especially considering there would easily be 100x more archers than elephants. ^^^ *100

As I have said many times, the archers of Morthond killed the beasts by shooting them in the eyes, which were about the size of normal elephants not the BS dinosaur movie abomination.

Hobit, Chief of the Inquisition (Inform me of heretics) Did I say anything of the sort? A RL elephant can uproot a tree/snap branches & crush roofs/smash wooden walls. Does this seem so unrealistic?
