Tim,<br>
A great idea and sure to generate interesting debates. However, I fear that the majority of RAT members will be disinclined to insult/satirize Roman culture and military systems (after all this is ROMAN Army Talk. Therefore, with Jenny's consent, I propose we create another offshoot of RAT (like Greek Army Talk), and christen it "Germannic Barbarian Horde Talk" (the word "army" being somewhat incongruous with a bunch of hairy naked guys with clubs.) Naturally, you should be the "moderator"<br>
<br>
I think we should incorporate some of your ideas too. For example, like the Roman helmet icon on RAT , GBHT could have that prussian spike helmet-Wagnerian horned helmet hybrid you suggested. If you need a German spiked helmet photo for an Icon, I have it on good authority (seriously), that your "Idol" , Peter Jackson has a whole house full of them (now why am I not surprised by this?)<br>
<br>
RAT enthusiasts will also finally have a place where they can post witty remarks on the anniversaries of great German defeats at the hands of the Romans, you know, exactly what you do all the time on RAT glorifying German victories over the Romans!<br>
