I don't need Jungle Jim looking at scrotums as I can watch a documentary or better still read a book and I don't need an office onager with my game. I need a game that works and as a loyal fan the very mention of Rome II was enough hype for me.

Haha, I love how he just wasted a pilum like that. The thing about pilum is that it's only a one-time use. The metallic spear is soft iron that is intended to bend once it impales a target making it difficult to dislodge it. And when it does get dislodged, the pilum becomes useless deliberately for the enemy to throw back at the Roman army.

The pilum that guy threw is never gonna be used again. Pilums have soft iron tip so that they're designed to bend upon penetration. Not only does this make it hard for the enemy to pry it out of their body, but the disposability make it impossible for the enemies to throw the pilum back at the army that chucked them.
@kentran81778 жыл бұрын
Actually, from what I've read, pila had a hardened iron tip and a softer iron shaft. The pointed tip needed to be hard to penetrate the enemy's shield and body, while the javelin shaft was softer so it would deform upon impact, making it useless to throw back.

If I could choose anytime in history to be alive it would have to be the Roman Empire or olde England. Some time when people cared and there was brotherhood and a flowering of creativity. We've strayed so far from where we should be that its heartbreaking. It's a horrible thing for me to say, but the ship is down at the bottom of the ocean now and we're doomed along with it. A slow crawl to total destruction. It will be all our fault too. We should have never embraced Christianity for starters and we should have seen technology and selfishness as enemies not friends. Christ was a great man, but after he died so much advantage was taken from that that I bet you if he and or The Romans came to earth now they'd be horrified and call us a bunch of fools and idiots and losers. Fuck modern civilization give me a tent, some good things to carry, some warm blankets, a warm bear, a warm lion, and an even warmer soldier the one good thing we still have. Let's hope we at least get to keep that wondrous invention The Soldier. I love them and so should you!

The Chinese dynasties to the East. It has happened again and will continue to happen over and over again. The greed of man knows no bound. It is possible to build an utopia society and world but highly improbable due to people's unwillingness to share and cooperate. And unfortunately, it is those same people that are in charge of modern day's governments and major superpowers. I mean if you look at the northern Scandinavian countries such as Sweden, they got a pretty great thing going there. It is possible but the rest of the world isn't gonna follow that because the people in charge don't want to lose power. But hey, what can you do. We are all just pawns in the scheme of things. If Earth self-destructed right now, the Universe wouldn't bat an eye. All we can do is hope World War III doesn't happen in our time and hope humanity will still be there after World War III.

+Benjamin Blake Mitchner "I bet you if he and or The Romans came to earth now they'd be horrified and call us a bunch of fools and idiots and losers." Jesus? probably. The Romans? No way, we got everything they had and more, mostly because our civilization was build on the fundament of their ideas. We got sanitations everywhere, not just in our capitals and big cities, we got democracy and a Roman based judiciary, we got well equipped and disciplined armies and soldiers. Basically, if a Roman would stumble into today Western civilization the only things he would wonder about are that none speaks Latin and/or Greek, women are equal to men before law and everyone is wearing pants, not just the soldiers in Northern climates. You romanticize the Roman culture as being enlightened in every aspect, as generous and wise above all else when Romans were mostly pragmatic first.

Search Reenactment Associations which focus on the Roman culture. Legio XXI Rapax or Terra Dacica Aeterna who boasts Legio V Macedonica. There is also Legio I Italica. Then there would Legio XIII Gemina and many more. Keep a close eye on them as during summer, they attend several events throughout Europe and all they do is basically... live like the romans did on campaign. Very, very educative. Not to mention that the battles they do can be entertaining as well.
