The very thought of having to face fellow legionaries in battle must have been a fearful one indeed! I would equate it to a U.S. armored divsion of M1A1 tanks having to face another U.S. armored division of M1A1's (I served on M1A1's for years and know the destruction they can wreck).
It would be nerve-wracking to be equipped better than any army on the planet, with superior tactics, and a sense of invincibility; only to have to face an army with identical equipment and tactics. I was thinking that when watching HBO's "ROME" when Brutus and Cassius' troops face off against the armies of Octavian and Antony.
