Re: Show here your Roman soldier impression

[M. Demetrius]

A darker cloak can be a concealment regardless of the color of tunic. The hood covers shiny helmets, too. But nothing much can hide a Roman soldier out in the middle of a field. Without long-ranged weapons (like modern rifles, e.g.), a scout spotted in a hay field can easily be caught by cavalry or other scouts. Better to stick in the tree line.
