List Queries / Sertorian Spanish bodyguards
November 13, 2020, 08:16:12 AM
So in Plutarch he says that 1000+ offer themselves as bodyguards as below, should there be a solduri type option?:

There being a custom in Spain, that when a commander was slain in battle, those who attended his person fought it out till they all died with him, which the inhabitants of those countries called an offering, or libation, there were few commanders that had any considerable guard or number of attendants; but Sertorius was followed by many thousands who offered themselves, and vowed to spend their blood with his. And it is told that when his army was defeated near a city in Spain, and the enemy pressed hard upon them, the Spaniards, with no care for themselves, but being totally solicitous to save Sertorius, took him up on their shoulders and passed him from one to another, till they carried him into the city, and only when they had thus placed their general in safety, provided afterwards each man for his own security.

My 1st refight 15-2 to Rome

10th like hot knife through warm butter.

Whole line of Celts nurfed DC.

Numidians and archers pincushioned one cav

My daughter's dice rolling for Romans was amazing. Plus at one stage Caesar had 4 reds. Slaughter.

Hi newbie so may be being dense here but cannot seem to locate a clarification on this:

On Current QRG for shooting there is a comment "or Skilled vs Superior = S on dice causes a wound" I can't seem to find a more detail explanation for what this means. Does this mean that Skilled shooters shooting at a Superior UG but not a poor or average cause a wound on an "S" dice result ?

Cheers
