Those are nice. I especially like the last one, it's nice to see an image from a video game now and then.
This implies, quite correctly, that my mind is dark and damp and full of tiny translucent fish.I like the first one because it's the cleanest of the pics, even if it's a painting. The fourth is good, but I dunno how it'd look at wiki size.
It looks okay, the grey-and-green vs. white-and-blue helps.
Pages Needing ImagesGot mixed feelings about the first image. It seems to sum up the trope somehow. But they are shooting arrows, not the usual wackage with swords.
I'd suggest cropping rather than shrinking, to maximize detail.
I had a go finding images and found it quite difficult. Picturing one charge lends itself to all kinds of workable compositions. Picturing the collision gives you a complicated mess, and I couldn't find a good picture of the moment before contact even though I woulda thought that's a natural dramatic moment.
I did find one picture of an ancient battle which appears to involve extremely aggressive tummy-kissing.◊

Actually Total War makes for an easy GIS query.

An Ear Worm is like a Rickroll: It is never going to give you up.Not keen on any of the Total War images — they seem rigid and unnatural. For me, the video-gameness gets in the way.
Blank crowner attached...not where I can fill it right now.
Okay, filled the crowner.
Rhymes with "Protracted."Bump for votes; as of right now:
- Yellow vs. white◊: +5 (yeas:5 nays:0)
- Painting◊: +2 (yeas:2 nays:0)
- Rome Total War◊: +1 (yeas:1 nays:0)
The rest are in the red.
Alright, we've got a winner. Now, we've got two ways we can go with this. Here's a 350 px crop of the pic, and a 350 px resize of the original; which would you prefer?
Like the bottom one slightly better. No reason why.
Fight smart, not fair.Is the pic from Shogun Total War?
EDIT: Created the Image Links page.

I'm surprised this doesn't have an image, i think it'd be easy to find one.
