    Wow, a thread started by me, no less. And here I was about to reply with almost exactly what I said in that original post more than 2 years ago.

    I've since found an extremely detailed site (even if it does look a little dodgy and has advertisements popping up all the time) that deals with that, in addition to just about every other aspect of Roman military organisation, in exhausting and very impressive detail, complete with diagrams, and some very sensible analysis and references (in my opinion).

    The table of contents can be found here http://www.garyb.0catch.com/site_map.html.

    A lot of books has also been written on the subject of Roman military, tactics, etc. I recommend getting and reading them, it is generally much more enlightening to read an actual analysis by a professional...

    That goes for all subjects, BTW, though it is easier to sit down and watch THC or ask online, real enlightenment by and large is to be found in

    Happy new year and enjoy your reading.

    I'm sure it's a fine site. Any idea how to get around that advertisement site that takes over every time I try to enter or click a link?
