I was at Marles this weekend and just one thing FANTASTIC to se two centuries in march together. We have the Opladen and the Ermin and the others groups complete the two formations and I have taken a big pleasure to march with them

Last weekend was one of the most impressive experiences of my life and definitely the coolest Roman experience until now! It was SUPERB. I hope someone has filmed the battle and the small fight at the camp. Participating in those was very exciting too.

Yes, definitly a very big experience... but I could not play with you for the last small fight, because I stay alone in the castra to stop a "Viking invasion" when the Ermin come back I think that they have understand what I have said them..."It will be dangerous for you... you don't know !" But what a great pleasure to charge with Chris Haines with the cuneum ! I hope that there are somebody who take some photographies. After I go to make peace with the invaders and drink a good beer together.

You were all very impressive and a picture underestimates the effect without the noise. I think that Yann from Letavia filmed you a little I will tell you.

Here is the report that the french TV TF1 made For saturday 13 o'clock news.

For late roman, we will make some packs.

We meet you all again just when you want and as soon as possible. It was very fun and really worth our 26hours on the road


Bye !

Emmanuel,
Good to meet you there -- it wasn't a 'Viking invasion' -- it was a confederation of Alemanni, Thuringians, Anglo-Saxons, Svear and Gaulois -- and it was good fun.
Thanks for showing me the manubalista -- I like your shield!
