			<description><![CDATA[ As it's always a good pastime for us historical experts to share our complaints about the things written or said by the less informed members of humanity. <br><br>Today I was listening to the radio, and they said something about the Baltic states (Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania) which lumped them together, as if they were as close to each other as (for instance) the Scandinavian countries, which in fact they are not at all. Estonia speaks a language related to Finnish, is Nordic in culture and... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ This coming July 20 marks the 140th Anniversary of the Battle of Lissa (now Vis) where the Austrian Fleet under Admiral Wilhelm Tegethoff defeated the Italian Fleet under<br>Admiral Carlo Persano. An interesting example where a techincally inferior but better trained and led force defeated<br>a technically superior force. The Austrians won mainly by ramming, Tegethoff had his ships painted black and told his<br>captains to ram anything not painted black and his last message to his fleet as... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I was just curious as to what you all think of these troops. In my opinion it seems their qualities and what they brought to the 16th thru the 18th century battlefields may have slipped thru the cracks somewhat with all the attention usually given to european armies and their forces. From what I gather, many of their formations were truely outstanding and to some degree ahead of their time. Many of their numbers were raised from childhood to be trained as soldiers and had complete loyalty to... ]]></description>

You can have any amount of troops made up of any arm, but you cannot outnumber the enemy, just match their numbers. You have any technology available to the Romans. You can also be Greek or Carthaginian or Persian or Trojan if you prefer, or have any Romans or pre-Romans as Allies. <br><br>Question:<br>How close to modern times could you hope to win a battle?<br><br>An actual battle, you... ]]></description>

But as, the years went by, their looks, tactics, etc. became, in my opinion, increasingly unRoman. Why did they change the legions shields and swords?Wasn't the gladius and rectangular shield fine? ]]></description>

I reported the correction that it was Russia vs UK and France (Sardinia was on the west-allied side, too, though I didn't bother with that).<br><br>Anyhow, it got me thinking that the history of each and every country is probably full of annoying misunderstandings and half-truths that gets echoed in school books and such until they (in a... ]]></description>
