Quote:I also noticed another anniversary for 2009: 2200 years since the Battle of Thermopylae between Rome and the Seleucids. The Greeks could have a go at the Romans! May be a chance to test Roman tactics against a phalanx and try and figure out how exactly they got through?
Well if there are enough volunteers to come over, there is the possibility to show much to the audience: Rome versus the Greeks (Seleucids), Rome versus the German tribes (9AD) and later Romans with some Franks or Merovingers or something like that ... I believe there are quite some re-enactors in Germany, Poland, and a couple others in Central-Europe who re-enact the time around the fall of the Roman Empire.
