I think the ides that the pila were breakable by design is a falacy that has been debunked!
It is recorded in Ceasars Civil Wars about using their pila to stab at the faces of the Pompeian cavelry! He only made a couple of mistakes... :wink:

Visne partem mei capere? Comminus agamus! * Me semper rogo, Quid faceret Iulius Caesar? * Confidence is a good thing! Overconfidence is too much of a good thing.
