Question about the Roman \'wedge formation\'
#16
So if the wedge with a multiple man point were tried what would be the best number? I would choose nine as you have a man guarding each direction set up like a grid. The man in the middle could fill in any casualties and more could be brought up from behind. Basically acts like a funnel but it is just a theory of mine.
