Zodiac and Late Roman Army Organisation
#11
Quote:It is usually assumed that the late legion was smaller than its imperial predecessor, so I don't think you'll find much support for a 7,200-man unit. (Just my opinion.)
Quote:I’m advocating units of 1200 men not one unit of 7200 men. However, a 4800 man legion can consist of six units of 800 men, and a 6000 man legion can consist of six units of 1000 men.
Why are your units of 1,200 men gathered into sixes, then? What is the point of the 7,200-man unit? And why have you decided that the units should comprise 1,200 men, in any case? :?
