Quote: We have another interpretation to the roman formation technics at war and this year, a lot of thing change. with help to blumted weapon and simulacre, the show is most dynamic and logic, most historical and simplify too. Strangely, It is most efficience too...At this moment we have much working the Vegetius chapters XIII and VIV of LIBER III with new cognition. Of course, work to the front battle line individual combat and hypothethic "turn-over" proposition.
Oooh, I know your group and I can't wait to see it! I hope we can go to Bavay, but we also have an invitation for an event here in The Netherlands and going abroad might be in the way of my family's holiday...
Quote: And you are laugh Valerius... But it's true, the total space alloted to each roman soldiers in line (ordo, or late manipulus...) is 3 feet; not a space of 3 feet between each soldier... mea culpa... :oops:
Yes! yes!
!: Do you have access to a text of Syrianus Magister's text? It pre-dates the Strategikon by possibly 50 years or more.
I only have one reference: Zuckerman Constantin, "The Military Compendium of Syrianus Magister", Jarbuch der Osterreichischen Byzantinistik, 40, 1990.
