    I fully understand - your post was a simple, reasonable question. I just wanted to use this compendium of past discussions to make the point that we DO go the extra mile - and beyond - in search of historical accuracy. It's a very accurate example of how we do things.

    One more example, and I'll let it go. One of our Team Members (Dux Corvanus) went out to the Iberian coast and collected some murex sea snails. He then extracted the glands and made a tiny amount of the famous Phoenician Purple dye. And why? Because he wanted to know what it REALLY looked like - and we were later able to use that information when discussing the correct colors for some of our units.
