Science fiction (sometimes shortened o sci-fi or SF) is a genre of speculative fiction that typically deals with imaginative and futuristic concepts such as advanced science and technology, space exploration, time travel, parallel universes, and extraterrestrial life. It has been called the "literature of ideas", and often explores the potential consequences of scientific, social, and technological innovations.

oh yes looks like we know what happened to the ninth legion

[@Gilhelmi]

Glad to see another history buff here. I was thinking the exact same thing.

[@theduke7539]

Honestly, I love the idea that this is the 9th, and I would love to see a series or movie about it, but I dont know if this story could be filmed and still come out as awesome as the written story

Yeap. Was thinking the same.

[@jerrybaker8597]

There is no way that that number of insects and a elephant unit can have the same mass as a liegon

[@Gilhelmi]

It depends on the density of the creatures. 200lbs of steel and 200lbs of feathers weigh the same. However, the feathers will take up more space because they are less dense.

[@Zael_Moonblade]

Many insects are surprisingly light on mass for their size and function on earth.

[@merlinathrawes746]

I suspect in an even further distance future there will be some aliens with some "splainin to do Lucy". But at least they treated the dead of the victors with honor.

Ofc, to make it fair, we will give them some iron and steel tools and fight some non-sapient robots that have "fake" organs that kills them. No need to subject any other race to this cruel display. Let's see how they like having the ball in their court.

[@henrypaleveda7760]

@@Elmithian eh I think if they stagnate that badly, there's no reason to go onto perpetuate an alien race for generations only to selectively and repeatedly stifle them. we could just put the effort into better things.

[@duanesamuelson2256]

Ranks of bronze by David Drake or the High crusade by Poul Anderson. It more closely follows Ranks of Bronze. There was another one where the legionaries were rescued also. I don't mind the author's writing further into a book, but the sourse work should be credited

[@Gilhelmi]

It was 2000 years ago. After that long, the Xeno's who kidnapped the Romans might have socially evolved into a better society and are quite embarrassed by their own past sins. I mean, it was only a few hundred years ago when Britain and the Americas were stealing people from Africa as slaves. Would it be right for Africa to declare war on us now?
