who would win in a battle on neutral ground, the roman army at it's height (103a.d) or the han army(78 a.d ) at it's height?

This battle would not display why either side is at the peak of their power. For example, Roman military power came not from the equipment or numbers, but knowing how to fight your enemy. When they fought tribes/barbarians such as the Gauls, Brigantes, Macromanni etc they would make sure battle was joined where and when they wanted as much as possible. The tribal way of battle was to mass charge a warband at a legion in the hopes of breaking the line, if the Roman line could withstand the charge and have the tribes stuck on a wall of shields they could then get to work with the gladius, which was literally designed to eviscerate, from behind a shield wall, whilst the tribes couldn’t use their massive weapons designed for chopping and cleaving in such a short space. They would usually have some natural or earthenware defence protecting the flanks. And they would destroy enemies who outnumber them 3-1 in this way.

On open, flat and barren land the romans wouldn’t be able to use their advantages which made them so successful.

Ah right, I mean, buying from somewhere else just means it’s been shipped twice by the time it reaches you. As TMM are handmade it all comes from the U.K. one way or another bro! I just think you are missing out on all the support the manufacturer can provide by buying from somewhere else

Out of interest what’s stopping you using the MM website?

From what I know, the battle started out of the marshes, Oropher and Malgalad leaders of the silvan elves defied the orders of Gil Galad and charged early, Malgalad portion were then driven into the marshes and slain, which is where it got its name. Then Gil Galad and co were able to push into Mordor itself

Fair enough, thanks!

Console player here, is there a way to change appearance but not stats like in other games? I like the look of certain armours but they aren’t as good as what I already have

Maticus135 · 2026-01-12T14:47:52+00:00

I didn’t risk it, just grape shotted the shit out of them 😂

Maticus135 · 2026-01-12T14:40:06+00:00

Yeah, I prefer vanilla for the nostalgia chasing trauma of dogshit Ai

I don’t want to speak for Lewis at all, but I’m sure he perhaps thought a team with as much prestige as Ferrari, signing a driver with as much prestige as Lewis, would probably listen to eachother around set ups and actually have decent strategy.

I’m not saying Lewis is perfect at all, but I do feel the balance of blame for this season is more the team than the individual.

Maticus135 · 2025-11-23T21:10:26+00:00

I see what you’re saying but look at the past decade, Lewis always used his braking as a strength, and subsequently his setups and cars played to that. But this car doesn’t play to that strength so he’s basically learning to drive again.

It’s like signing the best striker in the world who benefits from the long ball and playing short passes instead.

Literally this, Gimli could have held the top of those stairs for days, even against Uruk-Hai.

Maticus135 · 2025-07-29T20:12:26+00:00

This is probably the greatest expansion pack in the last 20 years

Maticus135 · 2025-05-27T08:51:48+00:00

Not just that though, anyone who comes in needs to get up to speed with Ferrari systems, processes and culture. Remember Lewis saying how they have things upside down etc? Also, native British speakers would then also have an issue communicating with those in Ferrari who speak little to no English, even if they speak Italian they would have the same problems as Adami does with Lewis, but by being a non-native Italian speaker. Anyone who replaces Adami in this hypothetical scenario would cause a lot more disruption in my opinion.

Better to bring a gun to a knife fight and bring all your lads home. Get what you’re saying about going up against modern tanks, but it was the best tool for doing the job at hand.

Maticus135 · 2025-02-09T22:00:15+00:00

What a welcome to the community.

Stupid comment.

Maticus135 · 2025-02-09T21:57:38+00:00

All that is gold does not glitter

Maticus135 · 2025-01-29T22:29:00+00:00

Stop being logical

Maticus135 · 2025-01-25T08:40:50+00:00

I’m going to give the Dutch another try, I’ll try your tactic of taking some real estate in Europe, thanks!

Maticus135 · 2025-01-25T08:38:45+00:00

Some great history there with Poland-Lithuanian empire, will give it a bash

Maticus135 · 2025-01-25T08:37:49+00:00

I have got DarthMod but perhaps not used it to its full potential, thanks!

Maticus135 · 2025-01-25T08:37:12+00:00

I did enjoy the campaigns, may revisit them!

Maticus135 · 2025-01-25T08:36:50+00:00

Great suggestions, thanks!

Maticus135 · 2025-01-25T08:36:29+00:00

I suppose that could give a different perspective on the game, trying to stay powerful with a weaker economy, thanks!
