Roman Trooper 200121M

You beat your sword against your rounded shield, shouting alongside your legionaries outside the gates of Syracuse. Inside, its people are filled with terror, deafened by the trumpets and noise of your army. Arrows rain down and you and your fellow soldiers form a barrier with your shields.

There's nothing that can stop you. Your shield's design allows you to stay in close formation, advancing on your defenders and dispatching them quickly. Even if an arrow were to make its way through the cracks, your Roman Trooper helmet will keep you protected.

DETAILS
