Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - joeandmich - 11-08-2011 Quote:Thanks Joe- and those are big questions, each deserving a thread on its own. For a start , the Late Roman oval shield was just as big as the early oval. And a combination of tactical evolution, external bright ideas brought in, and sheer fashion accounts for a lot. Thanks Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - Gaius Julius Caesar - 11-08-2011 Quote:"Also the guys in the XIIIIth who wear Len Morgans also seem to have the same problem." Of course Crispus you are always there to correct me! 8) I got the idea from the time in the XIIIIth, and I only joined them in 2005 first event in 2006. Many of the members, not just new ones were tieing up their belts. mile: And Crispus, your belt and kit were the one things I always remembered....always falling apart! And yes, it is indeed food for thought! :wink: Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - Gaius Julius Caesar - 11-08-2011 John I wasn't aware you did any 1st Century reenacting? :eek: Apart from the odd photo opportunity! Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - John Conyard - 11-08-2011 I do a bit of everything. I average a 1st century legionary once a week. But I fear I generally prefer mail to a seg. It does not need cleaning. mile: It is hard to find a picture showing how the seg fits my body shape. This comes close, but I have lost a fair bit of weight since this was taken last June. Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - comicus - 11-08-2011 John, Great picture, I love the Pugio your wearing is that the Deepeeka silver one or is it a custom?

I have always taken it you were adverse to the early period... mile: John's pugio is the Deepeeka Silver one, Mike. This was a last event at Archaolink in Scotland, at the site of Mon's Graupius! No professional hangers on to take pretty pictures unfortunately!

Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - John Conyard - 11-09-2011 My "proffessional hanger on" says your are right, you don't make for a pretty picture! I am not adverse to much outside alchopops and American whiskey. I do most periods but Romans are very much the day job. I will wear my seg all day on Thursday and think of you. ;-) The pugio was brought over by Cezar last February. I think he may have brought one for Piotr as well. Good value for the money. Good pictures guys. I especially like the legionary about to finish off the barbarian. Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - Gaius Julius Caesar - 11-09-2011 You can tell your professional hanger on, whatever his name is, thats the pot calling the kettle black.. Quote:I am not adverse to much outside alchopops and American whiskey. I do most periods but Romans are very much the day job. I will wear my seg all day on Thursday and think of you. Yes, but I seem to recall a complete disdain for us early types and infantry in general.. :wink: Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - John Conyard - 11-09-2011 I think you now owe Catherine an apology, but I will let you make it in person. And I fear your recollection is complete wrong. I have no distain for early Roman re-enactors or infantry in general. Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression - Gaius Julius Caesar - 11-09-2011 Hmmm, if you say so.. |
