    Nice pictures, though the Romans' equipment were from different eras. :P

    ...and some of the germanic fighters look quite untrained.

    Thanks for your feedback.

    THE STORY ABOUT THE PINK BUNNY:

    During the first waves of fighting, a men in a pink coulor full stock bunny custume steel into the battelfield and attacked the germans in their armbushing places - with a gigant watercannon;-) He run around and shoot a couple of times. The german rows were confused about this new roman tactic. Some of the ancient warriors attacked the funny bunny and he was forced to retire. After app. 3 minutes the securty hunters were able to finish this black humor sarcasm thing and finished him off. Still in these days Cerusci (Osnabrücker;-) says: give us a field, give us some romans and we will fight!

    Und die Moral von der Geschicht:
    Liebe Bunnys gibt es nicht;-)

    But i must say he is a bit overdosed, he took this action as an anti-national-act. Left winger - hope that hurts;-)
