Oh Legio XX, you have some \'splaining to do!!

[Lepidina]

Seen at Marching Through Time last weekend in MD:



They should know better than to leave the Celts in charge of the camp. :mrgreen:

[P. Clodius Secundus]

Shhhh! You'll ruin the plan! The "Eagle" is actually a very well trained homing pigeon. Once they are all asleep after toasting their victory, it will fly back to bring it's mate back to the nest in the enemy camp. Each will be holding one end of a spool of thread which the Legion will follow to extract real Roman justice for a sham defeat. I just hope the brutes don't eat the bird first. :lol:

Yeah, you can't trust no one these days, eh? That's not our eagle, by the way, it belongs to Legio XXIV, but it is our signum and camp. My helmet, too, though decidedly NOT my skull!

Aside from a few *minor* glitches such as this, it was a nice weekend!

Valete,

[Robert Vermaat]

My helmet, too,

What's a LATE ROMAN helmet doing in the hands of a Celt?? A fallacy of history!!

[Jona Lendering]

No no no. The late Romans had excavated ancient Celtic helmets, and because they had no museums back then, they decided to reuse them.

Wish I could have been there this year!

Alas for the Celts, they were having so much fun at the Roman camp that they left their own camp unattended...



...only to have it overrun by Hellenistic Thracians! (it was a multi-time period event after all :lol: )

[Steven M. Peffley]

Yeah, but you Thracians didn't get that nifty Eagle thingy.

We weren't worried about you. After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. :wink:
