One of the many reasons why I wanted the Greek text of Ars Tactica (which Macedon VERY kindly posted on the thread of that name if anyone else wants to check the translation!).

Have I mis-translated Vindex? - I had a look at the Greek and that's what i came up with (though admittedly my Latin is much stronger than my Greek so i could have made a mistake)...
