[split] Psychology of the Roman soldier

[Bryan]

So just to sum up, you believe that large shields proved soldiers weren't willing to risk themselves, because if they did they wouldn't use shields at all, or they would use very small bucklers (even though naked Gauls and Vikings and everyone else used shields). And that Spanish infantry could never fair against Roman infantry (even when they did, like at Cannae). And that you believe Lindy, a ballroom dancer who makes youtube videos, knows more about combat and killing in combat than people who've actually killed enemy in real combat (and because you know a GWOT or two you met online that makes you an expert on that too no doubt).

You still haven't tried to explain away why Lindy and yourself was right about SLA Marshall. Lay some knowledge down and show that I don't know what I'm talking about on that subject either.
