I have downloaded one with the Romans fighting Barbarians.
Hehe I guess they were the Romans then (I watched the video briefly)

Anyhoo, they weren't breaking formation to persue routers, but breaking formation to engage at the beginning of the battle...kinda pointless don't you think?

I have another question though: does turtle formation = phalanx? I'm asking because I'm not sure if the Greek phalanx was covered from missile fire by the men in the middle (shields up).
