Hey thanks a million Vortigern!
Now, was there a 'preferred method' of shield wall formation by the Romans or did they employ according to circumstances OR did this change as Roman civization went thru its changes? It's kind of a dumb question but there is always a bread and butter technique to every war band...so I'm just curious.
