@ArchDuke_Romellenios_Lanz well the ancient news is that smaller more maneuverable formations were better than the phalanx formations which is why the roman beat the greeks
elli Seeley Yes? I spelt it how the ancient Greeks would. “Macedonia” is how the Romans spelt it in Classical Latin. and how we spell it, at least in English., dunno about other languages. Cataphract for example, would be Kataphractii though that may be more of a Greco-Roman spelling. Don’t know how the ancient Greeks did plurals.
Gladius is the roman sword, each legionary would have 2 pilum and would throw at the start of the battle. Unless it’s early roman velites. *Please like so baron can see this, also baron if you want I can list you the equipment of a legionary* Ummm no a legionary is an average soldier, centurion controlled a century (100 men but 20 of them were non combatants), a legatus or legate controlled a legion. And a legion was numbered around 6,000 men (of course this includes the non combatants). So the lowest group is a contubernium, this included 8 soldiers and 2 non combatants, they’d choose a Decanus who was a bit like their leader, they’d distribute roles share a tent and form a brotherhood of sorts. Next a Century (by the way the letter c is pronounced k in Latin), this numbered 100 men or 10 contubernium, a signifier (standard bearer), optio (second in command, tessusarius (the commander of the watch), and of course the centurion. 6 centuries make up a cohort, 10 cohorts make up a legion, a legion also had a cavalry unit of 120 riders called the equitis legionis. The aquilifer was the man who held up the eagle banner or other specific legion banner, cohorts were numbered 1-10, first being full of double centuries. The double centuries of the first cohort numbered 5, and they were commanded by primi ordines, the highest ranking was primus pilus, he can be promoted to praefectus castrorum (logistics of the camps). 7 men are above the primus pilus, the 5 tribuni angusticlavii, tribunus laticlavius and of course the legatus who is also a member of the senate.
Squishy Liam is that “hero’s of Olympus a book” if so I haven’t read it, although I shall check it out. No my info came from a book on the roman army its triumphs and defeats.
Joseph ahh thank you for mentioning that, I knew they didn’t really have a pilum unit that had loads, I also knew near all soldiers had 2. So thanks for the info

The Roman main sword was called a gladius while their daggers were called a pugio. Ranged projectiles are pilum or pila for plural. The Lorica Segmentata for their armor.
Due to the spartan teqnique, training from the day they were born, Spartans were able to get amazing formations that could even beat militaries of 5 times the spartan army’s size
Pylum's were weak in their build for the sole purpose of after being thrown they would bend their tips completely so they couldn't be picked up by the enemies and thrown back at them. :D Keep up the good work Baron!
@@Gervaj79 Can it be used right now? It's 13+ version and there are only two or three mods there.. OH wait was it called Napoleon? Btw thanks helping me after 1 year!
Well the Greeks did held the center very well. Only until 1000 legionaries flanked the phalanx thus ending the battle and making the Romans victorious.
13:39 Well the commander of a Legion was a *Legatus* , a Legionnaire was just the standard infantrymen lol. 1 Legion had around 5000-6000 men I believe.
BaronVonGames friendly information. The Testudo did Indeed mean Turtle but was a formation used for many things such as sieges, and yes deflecting arrows. And the Spartan helemet was actually Corinthian.
My family were from Sicily and they had patrician status, In reality The Roman Empire conquered all of Greece. The Empire succeeded what the Persians could not.
When when you started, I remember to sing one of those like speed like spirit for a guy's just get shot straight between the eyes against the arches and then the spoof flying. 😊
In history the romans defeated the Macedonians and Achaean League (Athens and Sparta) and that not every game or mod can accurately represent this fact usually because Spartan Bias. SPARTAN BIAS, PEOPLE! P.S when the romans and Greeks fought the time had come where most armies abandoned the traditional hoplite phalanx for the phalangite pike formation. Still it is awesome to have theses factions in the game.
The Spartans don't use ranged weapons because they think it is cowerdly. If a Spartan was hit and fatally wounded that would consider to have a dissonrable death. The Spartans did have ranged troops but they were often sent to help another Greek islands battle.
Extra info a 8 men plus 2 slaves was called a contubernium then 10 contuberniums was called a century which equal 80 men plus 20 slaves. This was lead by a centurion, 2nd in command optio than a tesserarius than a signifier. 6 centuries make a cohort which is lead by the most senior centurion. 1st cohort is at double strength meaning each century in the 1st cohort have 160 men. This is led by the primus pilusi the most senior centurion out of all. Then 10 cohorts equal a legion. A legion supposedly had around 5000 men but were usually under 5000 men. A legion was lead by a Legate and had its own Aquilifer which was the holder of the Eagle (the standard for the Roman military). Some extra info for u Baron
The pilum was also used for making the enemies not throw their spears back. The scutum (Sheild) can deflect arrows because, they are made of ply wood and over layed in an 90 degree angle. The sword is used for thrusting now for slashing.
The Pilum would stick in an enemy shield and then pull the shield to the ground, so the enemy would literally have to throw down the shield to continue an attack. It was almost impossible to remove from a shield
the spartans would not charge historicity they would hold their ground until the enemy charges at them. Just like in the history books which now has a movie 300 spartans.
You should do Olympic events ie taekwondo wrestling, javelin spear throwing and sharpshooting (at bards). Try to think of others too as that would be cool

Baron, I have some ancient news for you....
Not Required
Yay
The testudo was used to protect soldiers from all types of missiles. It could be formed by immobile troops and troops on the march.
Actually i have to tell baron has a point to use testudo on this you can notice theres ranged on the back so theres nothing wrong at all 1:57
What's the ancient news?
@ArchDuke_Romellenios_Lanz well the ancient news is that smaller more maneuverable formations were better than the phalanx formations which is why the roman beat the greeks
“Even though they have these Greek-roman looking helmets”
That’s because Makedonia was Greek, Baron.

The third and fourth row in a legion would have three Pilum as to use them while the first two lines engaged.

Well the spartans did repel a few attacks by the romans and they were way past their peak at that stage
Neil O Connor Which war or battle are you talking about?
Spartans always best Romans in games even though I, Augustus, personally defeated all the Greeks by myself
Ave caesar !
Because Spartans obtained a near mythical status.
Look, I know it's been a long time and you forgot it. Old age does that to you. You were allies with the Spartans
Not the best to some how be kill by your men
Then you got knifes to the chest.... no, the stomach.... no, the arms.... no.... EVERYWHERE
I love how all the people who watch Baron all know at least a bit of history and people like me just know to much
I think it would be great to see a myth faction with all the mythical creatures and gods

Baron the spears that the Romans used was for when they threw the spear it would bend on impact so the enemy can’t throw it back
