False.
I did it, however, in front of the camera at the Festival. But you don't want to see that photograph! TPBM has created a phalanx out of his / her and the neighbours' cats!

False. I gave up. It’s easy to find a hundred cats in the neighborhood. But impossible to line them up and let their tail point straight to the same direction…
TPBM claims that the second name of the most famous east Roman is ‘Polanski’

TPBM refused to eat anything not cooked on a ral fire when camping out.

Except in the beer of course! TPBM forgets to turn off their mobile phone that's in their pouch..

Imagine a phalanx of 5 year olds -- even more difficult to organize than cats... :wink: "TPBM loves singing in the rain in full 'armour' " True! -- doing so tends to cover the sound of the rusted joints as I imitate Genus Kellius.

Actually I found children very easy to drill while assisting Paul with the "nanoi" :lol:
And they were very obedient when I growled at them "Stay in ranks!!!". :twisted: They only failed once against parents :evil: Guess they threatened to cut their allowance :lol: TPBM would love to command a determined phalanx of toddlers! Kind regards

Yes indeed -- and in full armor with helmet and haplon.
A dance of honor to the 300. TPBM thinks Stone's Alexander is the be all and end all of films about Ancient Greece... :wink: Narukami

Quote:Actually I found children very easy to drill while assisting Paul with the "nanoi" :lol: I did enjoy witnessing Paul as a barking mad hoplomachoi! The outcome of the other battles when the kiddies did win was not determined by the fact that they were superior to us; that one battle when Paul told us to run away (with the shields discarded!) in fear comes to mind.
