Quote:Anyone know why Roman legionaries seem not to use greaves that much apart from centurions? Polybius and Vegetius apparently mention them, though (according to Wiki..so..). I'd think that protection even for front leg would be valuable.Leg armour is the first thing that is discarded by anyone who spends a lot of time walking.
