Roman Military Superiority
roman wargamer replied to Germanicus's topic in Gloria Exercitus - 'Glory of the Army'
not really, i am very poor at remembering dates and names, but i have now to ( force to ) looks at my old notes. but i am very pond of remembering good battle but not the date. -
i recalled from memory, from the book "The Conclave" that it is the Roman Catholic marching in two parallel line with candles in their hands and with the continous loud ringing of the church bell that makes Attila "The Huns" causes it's retreat simply by reason of supertitious belief. after he see them on the other side of the river.

Roman Military Superiority
roman wargamer replied to Germanicus's topic in Gloria Exercitus - 'Glory of the Army'
if you recall, in 2nd Punic War, Rome repeatedly lose the battle and the casualty runs to 300,000. but Hannibal lose only at Zama, and never recover from it, to build new army. 1. pool of manpower which to draw. my first choice. 2. training and movement tactics. my second choice. -
in where i was born and grow....with my muslim friends...i could blasphemy Muhammad.... they will not hurt me...on the same day...but our frienship will be ruin forever... they will let me go home...and they no longer help or protect me on next time... if i do it again from other muslim. ...a few months ago... my wife uncle shoot in the head a mayor's bodyguard... simply because he's taunting the man ( in public feast ) he can not fire the gun he bring, saying it repatedly ... that humilates a man as cowards. He fire it to prove he is not coward. it is a place ( just south of manila, my mother's hometown ) were family feuds rivalry could run for generations. if you break a law, customs and tradition, even if you know it... you have to face the consequences.

Where Is Every One From?
roman wargamer replied to Viggen's topic in Renuntiatio et Consilium Comitiorum
i was born in philippines, mindanao, cotabato city... means fort of stone ... where a small hill of solid stone in the center of the town, now a regional military headquarter, with four rivers that enclose the city and emptied into the sea. it is the place where the famous muslim mujahedin sword "kris" can cut through the riple and soldier's body, and they continously run towards the enemy even after they were hit repeatedly by bullets, and killed one to two soldier in the process. that promted Captain Pershing to request the Army Ordnance, to invent a gun that could stop and put down the enemy, when hit by bullet those suicide warriors. and the gun that we now know as caliber 45 was born... ...and Pershing become General , the only one in the US Army history by act of US Congress, by-passing the rank of major, lt. colonel and colonel, directly becoming general. it is a city where death by guns is a common thing and beheading is not rare. -

I like the visual aid but is this switching during battle or not? Centurion Legioneer reply= yes , the Legiones , made it to perfection during practice; could do it easily during battle, either the aggresive , passive , or retreative rotation. The very first episode of HBOs "Rome" showed the very fluid interchanging of the first line [ with the second line ] with an excellent overhead shot. Pertinax reply=what HBO shows was for scenematic effect... no it is not the right way , form , and movement. are you aware of the military term or parlance "battle line"? a Cohors have 10 battle lines with 3 battle acies lines. the Legiones "battle line" acies have 3 lines compose of Anteadstatus, Hastatus Prior and Posterior. the centurion "line" was fixed form , rigid movement , and militarily straight line. nobody is ever allowed to break away from the line , either by some moving faster or slower. they do it by "military cadence" or numbered step of marching. regardless of reason , of exposed individual enemy, good opportunity because of weaker type of enemy troops or enemy flanks was exposed. The Hastatus Prior and Hastatus Posterior never break their line regardless of reason. It is the "JOB" of the more mobile and lighter Anteadstatus to do the "selective lesser battle". ( even in modern gun powder era , you can be punished for breaking your company line, unless until the command of "Charge" when the CO feel the the enemy can be defeated by assult.

There are enough utterances in John's Gospel to dispel your second last notion. St Athanasius' adage, that a man nor an angel could have saved man, only God. Theodosius here is my reply, rw "...Christ is himself the Savior of the church, his body." Ephesians 5:23 Jesus Christ is a man havin flesh and bone. "Behold my hand and feet,that it is I Myself. Handle Me and see,for a spirit does not have flesh and bone." Lk 24:39 Jesus Christ himself said he is a man. "But now you seek to kill Me, a Man who has told you the trurth which I heared from God..." Jn 8:40 __________________________________ The same occured with the Holy Spirit, where you have the pneumatomachoi (πνευματομάχοι ) and through this heresy, St Basil and then St Gregory expounded the Third Person. Origen's use of homoousion (ὁμοούσιον) allowed for its adoption in Nicea. Theodosius "For nowhere in the Old Testament do we find any clear indication of a Third Person." The Catholic Encyclopedia. vol. 15, New york, The Encyclopedia Press, Inc., 1913 "The Nicene Creed had said nothing about the deity of the Holy Spirit." Kuiper, B.K., The Church in History, USA, CSI Publication, 1984 "Origen went even farther in this direction by teaching explicitly that the Son is subordinate to the Father in respect to essence, and the Holy Spirit is subordinate even to the Son." Berkhof, L., Systematic Theology, Grand Rapids, Michigan, WM.B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., 1977 It was only in 381, at the Council of Constantinople, the Holy Spirit become god, by virtue of council. That the way in which Christian ( catholic) dogma has been developed, Theodosius But the doctrine of the Trinity Gods, can never be read or found in the Holy Bible. It is manmade.

Start making sense or I'll be forced to place your posts on moderated status. Ursus Why you are very hard on me Ursus, i have already taken precaution to moderate my post. if you will only read my thread line by line, the very word is not mine but taken only from books. Who exactly are these "conservatives" that are trying to "bait" you into ? Ursus some conservatives and hardcore christian easily get offended. when they read a reverse of their belief. ( a subject have two face, Obverse and Reverse) the more i ask question and reply... the more heated words they re-post. --- I have trouble understanding what or who you are responding to. Sextus Roscius my apology, in my last thread, they say it seems an "attack" on that and this religion, when i inquire where is my attack they refuse to point it exactly.so i am at lost myself. where i thought all my post do not belong to me personally... because it is all qoutation only. most books i read have a leanings of each own... but i still read it because of the informaton it have. --- as i said... it is posted for an overview of religious ways of life in Old Rome. no more no less.

Oh by the way, it should be Civis Romanus sum. FLavius Valerius Constantinus thanks for your correction. rw Uh... so saying that you are a Roman was the whole point of this post? what's your reason for a side comment again. --- ... what was the point of this post. To make a statement that had you been a Roman ... Neos Dionysos i love Old Rome... and have it studied for along time. that's my reply.rw Nah, I say it did not end until the 15 century A.D, then again I am of the Byzantine-ilk. it defends on what reference book you use, i use the Webster's. by 4th century, the empire slowly disintegrate... and it is no longer the same as in 27 B.C. rw or just to post an overview of religious ways of life in Rome? Neos Dionysos yes, just to post an overview of religious ways of life in Rome. rw saying, i am a roman means i love Old Rome... i know it's heart and soul. and still can take any 'stand' on any point of view either pro or con, without sourgraping. --- I'm trying to give you the benefit of the doubt,but your posts are becoming increasingly strange. Ursus i notice that nobody is ever mentioning the sun god, what is the strange? is Sol Invictus rarely known... or my pointers. pointers means to me as talking a "topic" and point it's "pro and/or cons." no more no less. but some concervative religious people are taking it into different ways.rw --- Agree, I have trouble making heads or tails of some of these. Hopefully wargamer will come back and suprise us all. Sextus Roscius but i will no longer take the bait... to let other's conservative lure me... and have reason... to say's bad words on my thread or to me, and wasted what i have research. rw --- so i have taken all precaution to "edite" my thread of any tails.(making heads or tails .Sextus Roscius) it is just to post an overview of religious ways of life in Old Rome. rw

Claudius - Underestimated And Overlooked
roman wargamer replied to Pax Orbis Furius's topic in Imperium Romanorum
Claudius was severely underestimated by all. This saved his life. During the many radical, violent purges after the death of Augustus, Claudius was overlooked as insignificant, an idiot, below even the lowest slave in intelligence. This is patently false, far from the true intellect of Claudius as could be. Claudius was not disabled mentally in the slightest. to live long is sign that everyone accepted you, the patrician and the legion, and manage them well. rw He was certainly superior to his predecesser .

Why Did The Romans Build So Many Fora?
roman wargamer replied to WotWotius's topic in Romana Humanitas
In conclusion to the question, there are many reasons why the Romans built so many fora. In the early days of the empire, fora were built for utility as Rome at this point needed more shops for its ever-growing population (e.g. the Roman Forum). However, in the later days of the empire, when Rome -

as far as i know; christianity still fall very well, within inside the Roman history. what i am only empasized is that Roman Catholic was already a romanized christianity. in the Council of Nicea was known as the turning point of christian apotasy. === "Jesus is the Divus Iulius of the Flavians: what a good alter plot of Da Vinci Code. i been studying "JC" Julius Caesar for a long time that why i know his life "time line" have been long long gone and Rome a very powerful state in the whole known ancient world. before the man Jessu was born in Nazareth, Israel. is a very elementary error ( if you are really talking factual histrory ) to mistake "JC" Caesar to the man "JC" Christ; just because they have common initial. but if you are only talking about it in the idea of good plot for fiction, it is agood one. when the Jewish Pharisee ask Jesus if is right to pay TAX to the Roman. He reply, give me a coin, then ask them whos face is in the coin, they all replied, "of Caesar", then He said, " Give to Caesar what belong to Caesar, and to God what belong to God." By Jesus time, the very name Caesar was already mean " The Government". and Jesus "The Christ", was sentence to die in the cross by Governor Pontius Pilate. i do not know if this very common history of two great men but of different story and time could confused most people, why not try to read a more varied books, not just one. my "intent" was to make more "diversified point of view", and not to make enemy, but of friends.

Why Peter of Tarsus join the Church Of Christ and Change Religion When people hear about the teaching that one needs the Church of Christ to be saved, some become confused, others irritated, and not a few are infuriated. They doubt the fact that membership in the Church of Christ is needed for one
