Discussing Roman drill commands (NO HOLDS BARRED!!)
#11
Domaszewski did already, all infinit:
tollere - march, to begin a march
movere - march, beginn a march
ferre - march
effere / proferre - leave a place in march
constituere - stop, hold
inferre - to attack
convertere - turn around
referre - retreat
transferre - to go over
promovere - march forward
retro recipere - slowly go backwards (not retreat but going back)
ad laevam ferre - mach to the left
obicere - make a counterattack
armaque expedire / armare - get dressed for battle


Some of these used words were repeated by Tacitus, Suetonius, Cicero.
real Name Tobias Gabrys
