Legionnaires of the imperial period

When you are thinking of the Roman empire, you probably have on your mind the coliseum, Julius Caesar and the picture of a typical legionnaire in his lorica segmentata wearing an imperial-gallic helmet. Most films, books and comics depicting the Roman empire will present you the looks of this classical legionnaire. But in reality the military was constantly changed by reforms as they happen in modern times. Have a comparative look at the changes in the equipment of a soldier of your country within the last 150 years and you will most likely find big differences.

Like this the picture of a professional soldier of the Imperium Romanum never ceased to evolve according to experiences, doctrines, fashions demanded by high command. For example, once an emperor (Caracalla) tried reequipping full three legions with long macedon sarissas (extremely long pikes) because he admired Alexander the Great and expected similar effect fighting the Parthians in the east 216 AD. Our cardboard kit Roman legionnaire lets you assemble a foot soldier how he looked like around 100 AD. It was the time when the Flavian dynasty came to an end and the situation at the borderlines of the realm was rather calm.
