Shield design / emblems
#1
What happened when a detachment was sent to another front, or sent to help another legion, but traveled under it's own vex? Did the shield design get changed, or did they fall in next to the sister unit with a different shield design? Did the legions in first century armies take a standardized design from the army they were with, or the commander, or was each legion, cohort, alae and detachment carrying it's own design?
