There's been a recent 'fun' tactic of trample Ulm to death with massed elephants before turn 15, going on.
Ulm does'nt stand a chance against this tactic, because his largest unit is size 3 and elephants are size 6. Also 120 crossbows/archers all set to target large monsters does not work either...

Thaumaturgy;
Bonds of Fire (morale-dependent, so it should REALLY slow those elephants down!).
However, I still haven't been able to use tramplers to as good effect as (seemingly) everyone else, so I might undervalue elephants.

Saw MA Ulm use Bonds of Fire, he had 6-12 dwarven smiths (this was his final stand vs Bander Log in his capital fortress), while they did effect the elephants, they only seemed to slow them 1 or 2 rounds, so not really effective.
Others may be useful, not seen them used or tried them to stop a elephant stampede.
The tactic seems to be to amass 10-20+ elephants in one large mass, mix in some higher morale apes/other units. Very simple, more deadly than a multi-blessed nation to any nation with size 3 or smaller units.
Also its usually backed up with 20 - 40+ longbows just for added pain.
