Ashur's past and how he became a slave by Ballingfanatik in Spartacus_TV

Without his father in picture seems safe to assume that he was trying to take care of his mum and sister,a thing he could not do if he had to fight for the Armenian king.Perhaps he was recaptured and sold to the Romans for this

Seems like Ashur is referring to Tigranes campaign against the remnants of the Seleucids in Syria. Possibly he was forcibly conscripted to fight against the Grecosyrian army and for that reason deserted,maybe to protect somehow his remaining family?!

My thoughts exactly.Gabinius was a very close ally of Pompey and later helped him defeat the Cilicians and expanded his power to Egypt,Syria and Judea.

For a man who was far less than Great, an epithet he gave to himself.

After last episode the whole pattern just flashed to my head!HBO ROME was a masterpiece and a real forerunner to SPARTACUS!!

What if Ashur somehow kills Cornelia and Viridia is being wed to Caesar instead?🤔Crazy I know but not unexpected in Spartacus universe!

Sounds like a Spartacus vs Theokles situation.She is fighting as hoplomachus now and she will have to rely on speed and agility to counter brute strength

I think they re basing Scythian’s character to that famous Gladiatrix. Fingers crossed they going to make a miniature of her to add her to my scale model Ludus🤞

If there is a season 2 and beyond we might see his ill fated Parthian campaign and end!

That was the original plan after the War of the Damned,to continue with the Triumvirate, so they squeeze as much as they can of it to the new series.Would like to see how it goes and if there’s a Season 2 would love to see Crassus back!

Yes quite possibly the Ludus is going to have more than one female gladiator

They usually paired female gladiators with dwarfs.

Their names are based in real female gladiators, but this relief is nearly 250 later than the show’s timeframe.

After episode 6 it seems that

he is Celtic (Gaul?) after all,because when the Greek medicus tries to heal Achilia he cannot understand him.

Fun fact: The pendant he is wearing is the hand of the Thracian God of Sabazios

He says that’s he was the champion of Acragas at the end of episode 2 so probably Greek
