Marching Order: Position of Zenturio and Standards
#1
For a diorama showing legionaries (2 cohorts) marching with fast pace and in bad weather, i.e. legionaries wearing paenulas, I have the following questions: (1) Centurios: Would centurions march with their centuries? Would they possibly ride on horse? (2) Siginfier: Would Signifier march with their centuries? I have read in many sources, that they would march together with other siginfier leading the whole marching order and probably just following the respective tribune. More importantly: Would they, in fast marching order and bad weather, carry the standards and would these standards be covered (to protect from bad weather) or not.

For an impression of the figures for the diorama, please see the pictures. Thank you for any help you can provide
