    Default Pahlava Brooch?

    I was watching Gladiator, when I realized that Commodus has a brooch shaped exactly like the Pahlava faction symbol. Any guesses as to why it's there?

    I thought the Parthians had been defeated by the Sassanids at this time? Would they use he same design? And how did that very design come into the hands of the EB team?

    Depending on how the time frames check out, Diocle might have made a ballpark accurate guess...

    I ain't aware of what a ballpark accurate guess is. I'm sorry.
