It's quite interesting that this thread seems to be a reiteration of past threads on the same subject!
Also that those of us who do early Pricipate are soo boring.... :whistle:
We promise to try harder next time!
However, it is not only difficult to do a diversity of Early helmets, there are few late ones too.
As numbers grow, there will be much a case of, everyone looking the same.
In fact, I have already observed this with some late groups.
However, there a some very good early groups on the go, and I am fortunate to be a member of 2 of the best.
As for late kit, some of it is very bling , isn't it!? 8-)
If only we all had the fortunes to spend on good custom made kit, and actually got it to fit, wouldn't we all have kit for every period???
It's all interesting, and I think there needs to be larger numbers of early, and late groups, who co-operate, and not sow division at every opportunity.
You won't field a legion with only 12 men...or 60...you need 5000 at least for first,
possibly less for later legions.
