Salve,
I'm new to the forum, I just joined. I was looking through the pictures here and all your kits look amazing and impressive and I find I've been very far off on my research into Greek/Roman armor. My kit will need some serious readjusting.
I'm mostly participate/fight with another group (SCA) as I haven't found many Roman groups in my area yet (Oregon).
And I'm aware that while women didn't fight in the Roman army - I'm still making an effort fight and do so with as much accuracy as is possible.
My armor is all leather - somewhere I had read that leather was used in early periods. Now I'm thinking that must have been wrong. Most of the armor here is metal.
I'm looking forward to learning more. Just wanted to introduce myself since this is one of the forums I'm likely to be hanging out in.
