    I don't think the game engine allows the EB mod team to create a different shield for every soldier in the same unit.

    EDIT: oh, my bad then
    Yes, the ppl below are correct. Different legions have different shields - camillian principes, polybian principes, post-marian legions, etc

    thats not what he's asking. He is asking if different Legions have different shields, not legionnaires. And to answer your question. IIRC they did have different shields. but you'd need to have totally different units to have different legion troops. EB has maxed its units as is.

    yes, all legions had different shield designs to tell one another apart, sort of like in Roma Surrectum. But most legionaries in the same legion would have the same or very similar shields. The shields in EB are a common and well known design, so I think that's why they were used.
