Largest units / Biggest events ?
#38
I was also at the Nashville, TN filming. There were about 70 soldiers in total - legionary troops - that would be a century allowing for one not at full paper strength. 40 of us formed a testudo under Dan Peterson's command. The Roman Days event of 2007 had rather less than a century of troops. The total number of Roman soldiers may have been into the low 30's, but Matt would likely know an exact count. The roped off area for the display was rather small and we broke the numbers up into "two centuries" due to space considerations. It was easier for two smaller blocks of troops to move about than one large mass.
