    It is possible to have two specials. SPQR has roman units capable of shield wall and testudo .

    I was under the impression leaving units without a "normal" formation - square or horde - tended to have annoying side effects though.
    "Let us remember that there are multiple theories of Intelligent Design. I and many others around the world are of the strong belief that the universe was created by a Flying Spaghetti Monster. --- Proof of the existence of the FSM, if needed, can be found in the recent uptick of global warming, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other natural disasters. Apparently His Pastaness is to be worshipped in full pirate regalia. The decline in worldwide pirate population over the past 200 years directly corresponds with the increase in global temperature. Here is a graph to illustrate the point."

    They probably do present problems if not thought through.

    For instance the SPQR example- In shieldwall they will move pretty slow, also in Testudo, so if that is their 2 formations then your Romans are going to move SLOW without exception.

    Don't know how, or if, they got around that in SPQR.....
