Show here your Germanic warrior impression

Well, Tim, let's see your impressions, then, if you don't mind.

I thought the only lack might be decorations on the shields, but by now perhaps that's been done? In the time period depicted, the Germanics were pretty metal poor, and clubs and axes would not be uncommon at all. A good swipe from a club could certainly crack a head and put a big dent in a helmet, or break a forearm bone. Even some of the Roman auxilia were called "club men".
