Quote:Just looking at some of the returns that have been found, showing how many troops were available to the centurions.... look at the Vindolanda returns of the auxiliary unit, for example. One centurion has 6 men , one has 9 men, one has 11 men, one has 45 men, 2 have control of 337 men and one has 296. Hmmm I suspect that any auxiliary group with 6 men can show that historically they are correct to have a centurion, based on document "Tablet 154" :twisted:

Just because it may be historically accurate doesn't mean that it's right. Those Roman's just didn't know what they were doing. Imagine a poor barbarian being skewed by a soldier from one of these undermanned or mini-units. Sure he's dead, but did he have a realistic experience?
