pelt drape for normal legionary?
#4
Wow, thanks to both of you for the fast answers. Big Grin

Quote:Do you mean as a badge of rank or as a method to keep warm? ... Maximus has a fur cloak to keep out some of that damp cold of Germania

What I actually ment in detail was: Would it be okay for a roman legionary in midwinter somewhere in the German woods to wear a pelt drape like Velites would do, but without the head, just consisting of back and legs? Or would he risk severe punishment by his officers, because that might be mistaken for a signifer´s bagde of rank?

Thanks again, Furius
