he was not even present at the Battle of the Kalka River. This is the only reality based episode in season 3 that did not feature any black powder weapons. This is the second episode not to feature a long-range category (although the Soliferrum and the Recurve Bow are projectile weapons in the mid and special weapons categories.) Percentage wise, Hannibal's Soliferrum is the most dominating weapon in any category of season 3. Genghis Khan is the only warrior of season 3 to win after getting the battle field tactics edge. The war elephant is the sixteenth weapon to be given the edge and score fewer kills than the opposing weapon. Despite being more effective than Hannibal's bronze-rimmed wooden shield, Genghis Khan's steel shield had a higher armor failure rate. This could be due to the fact that Genghis Khan killed mostly by striking the brass helmet first. A bonus clip not in the original broadcast shows the elephant taking down several targets while charging at a speed of 24 mph, as well as Khosbayar attempting to stop a simulated elephant from charging with fire arrows.Reenactment 26The battle starts with Genghis Khan, who is mounted on horseback, and 4 of his Mongol soldiers out walking on a hillside.

In retaliation, Hannibal orders his horseman to ride on and attack with Soliferrums. As he charges, one Mongol breaks from the group and charges into battle with his Jida Lance, only to be struck down by one of the Soliferrums. Khan rides off and soon returns the favor to the Carthaginian with his own Jida Lance, which one of his men hands to him. Back on the other side of the hill, Hannibal dismounts from his elephant and prods him on with a Soliferrum to charge at the Mongolians. The three Mongolians kneel down and shoot at the elephant with their recurve bow and arrows, but soon retreat as the elephant charges in, trampling one Mongolian. The Mongolians regroup and continue assaulting the elephant with
