Gaius Cornelius ordered the 1993 edition - that is what Amazon.co.uk is offering. Means there must be a few of them still in stock.
I have it already, but am waiting patiently for the 200? edition.
By the way, speaking of Roman military equipment. I was able to see - up close and in person - the gladius, dagger, belt plates, apron terminals, belt buckle, etc. of the "Herculaneum soldier" at the "Pompeii" exhibit at the Museum of Civilization, Gatineau, QC, Canada (across the river from Ottawa, Ontario. They also had some of the tools he was carrying when he died during the eruption of Vesuvius.
This past weekend, at the Museum of Civilization, a few of us - from Legio XXX Ulpia Victrix, Legion XXIV and Legio XII Fulminata, as well as a pair of very patient horses hitched to a chariot, and one Roman matron - provided a living history view of the Roman army, with the one lady as a senior officer's wife. Wonderful time, wonderful hospitality on the part of the museum, and a chance to see the exhibit as many times as we could find the time to go through it.
