Hey, what do you think about hte wardogs?  I never used them when I was playing as the Selucids, and haven't really run into a situation with the Julii where I thought I'd need them, although I have a few units.

They're pretty sweet, they definitely do what their description says.  If you let your forces attack, and then flank the enemy with your wardogs, the enemy will panic really fast and their flags'll start flashing white rather quickly.  They're also really good for cavalry because they "nip the heels of the horses" or whatever the description says, and I've definitely seen them be very effective against cavalry.

How did you take those screenshots?  It looks like hitting printscreen in the game gives you a TGA file, but the TGA Viewer from totalwar.com isn't displaying them for me.
