    Default THERE'S STRONG AND THEN THERE'S LEGION STRONG

    Probably old hat to you salt dogs out there; but I just came across it looking for movies re: EB tactics/battles. Pretty motivating for fans of the Romaioi.

    I showed this to my English class, and for some reason they thought it was hilarious.

    For the a-ha erlebnis: do a forum search for "EB Video competition". Chances are, it will not dissapoint you.

    Perhaps they laughed because it's an antiquity version of today's commercial for joining the US armed forces... verbatim.

    No, they were pretty much just laughing at mildly amusing parts of the video. For example, when the words "The strength to get yourself over" appear and it shows the Marian legionary climbing the ladder is one of the moments in which they laughed. Also, they laughed at the part with the Roman farms and "Strength to Defend your Home".

    Thanks. Now I can add it to my favorites over at Youtube. I missed that first time it was out.

    Gotta admit, I can hear it time and again. Love it. All it stands for.

    --Now, if someone makes a Marines themed intro...

    I love that video. I downloaded it to my harddrive somewhere back during the competition.
    A spoof/tribute to the US Army recruitment ads.
    Some of those video creators, including this one (wursti), IIRC, joined the EB team to help make videos.
