Now, the unit description of the hastati, princepeis, and triarii talk about how the Roman armies marched in three rows with gaps in between, and I was just wondering if I'm picturing it correctly. To illustrate what I'm thinking, I quicky came up with an (admittedly craptastic) diagram:



H=Hastati, P= Princepeis, T= Triarii

Is this basically what was going on?
