ergh please use THIS sheet
and yes? Romans don't go into battle naked.
Gaesatae do though, scary sight.
anywho onto the game: don't expect the battles to be historic, but the places, units, and wars will be.
Tis the year 264 BCE and your commander Appius Claudius Caudex has landed with two legions near Messana where he is to besiege and take the city from the Carthaginian garrison. after a few days all tthe troops are unloaded and you march down the short road to Messana. when you reach the outskirts, you're ordered to assist in creating a quick breastwork and helping set up camp, after the long day you quickly go off to sleep.
The next morning you wake to the sound of trumpets for the men to wake up and prepare.
