High Imperial Roman army vs Late Roman army
True stamina is quite important. And the historical info on rome that i have read show a large scale regular drilling in its ranks so i do belive they would have a higher stamina when in armour and on the march. I know my gear in the army was roughly 90 pounds and my weapon depending on what i was using could be up to another 30 pounds with ammo. So i understand stamina. And doing the local ohio ren faire in armour if strenuous even for myself due to all the gear i had. And i know night ambushed in afganistan worked quite effectively. So yes light armoured for ambushing would be very effective.
