We like formations. Not only does it look good, it also can safe your army in tight battles. I loved the flank formation in AOK, and the tight line formation that is the default.
Now what formation do you think will be a good addition to the "age" series.
I find RoN has some great formations.
But here are some I came up with: The Rhombus formation

You can use [code] tags to show formations without those lines.
The formations need to give some decent tactical advantage to be useful. Right now the box isn't much different from the line.

Nothing. He didn't know how to use [code]tags, and without them the forum automatically deletes the extra spaces.

i think certain formations should provide an increase in armor. like how the romans used to make that turtle formation with their monster shields to deflect arrows very effectively.
There is only one true God, but since He is not in AOM, I play as Kronos.

I agree. And a square with pikes at the borders should increase the damage against cavalry...
