Hi Caius here with a question, Ok so the Romano-British were horsemen, however there is still the need for Infantry,only Infantry holds the ground while Horsemen are good for Recce, heroic charges and patroling areas there still has to be infantry to guard forts, towns and due the hard grunt work that horseman usally dont want to do ie building, repairing creating enbankments. Would there be for a while some left behind Late Roman units or the Militia or just a peasant levy. Also what about bowman in the Romano-british ranks,they could not have been all Horseman. :roll: Anyhow my two cents Cheers Caius/Thomas R
