Say, the 80 men you get in a unit of roman infantry in large settings.
My first instinct was that it should have been 100, but reading up on it it seems a century had 80 men.
(And a cohort was six or something centuries).
It seems each century had it's own centurion and standard bearer? At any rate, I've added in a centurion and standard bearer to my hastati and principes, because it just looks better :)
And then there are these things called maniples, or double centuries, which apparently had 160 men?
That would be great if the default sizes for roman legionary units matched up historically :)
I don't know too much about the subject ( just what I have read online and in a book a long time ago) so I'm eager to know if they are accurate or if I'm just mistaken.
