    Default Your favorite legion?

    Simple topic,what are your favorite legion of Roma?
    It can be the small things, that attract you, or their history, and even, just by their looks.
    My favorite are the "Legio XXI Rapax" they look very nice.
    There are some more, but I forgot them.

    Praetorian Guard are like terminators in the field, heavy armour, great discipline and weapons. Plus the cavalry is devastating, though I've just got the legions available from Massilia and Carthage so I'll try those out tomorrow

    Don't wanna play as Rome. Killing Rome is more fun.

    I generally think of rome as a weaker faction, but I play them since its more difficult since they have crap troops.. Polybians are my favourite.

    That pretty cool actually, wish I had something like that. Tho the Romans never made it as far as where I grew up (because of germans). I like Caligulas XXII Primigenia, and XIII Gemina. THIRTEEN!

    The legions of Galatians: Legio XXII Deiotariana!

    Gallica and Auladae are also great as Celtic legions.
