Maybe they was a little mixed in the period when it changed. But When they reqruited new cohorts why should they choose between different helmets?

About the sound from marching and the foacale scarfs I can get evidence, But I think you allready know. It was not meant to insult anyone in any way

Now what's this all about??? I don't think you need to apologize, the name of the thread is after all "little things we want in EB2". And you only made a suggestion, it's not like you were forcing any of your ideas on people in a harsh manner. I think my post was actually worst than yours. And I think some people overreacted a little bit. If everyone is going to get flamed for every little mistake or thing they say, maybe this thread should be closed? But then again feel free to ignore me, or flame me.

We spend hours picking our way through journals and musty books with the hope that we'll make something truly miraculous; something greater than us; something that can educate people about an oft neglected period of history. And you want the sound of Romans marching?

You know what, I'll just stop now before I say something worse.

Um, are you okay?? I think you may be treating that poster a little too harshly.
