Ok gents. Netflix now has a series on Varus' campaign into Germany.........

Wait it's out already? I'll get to it, and we should discuss. The trailer had some nice elements, some interesting choices. I wonder if there's hubbub over the Germanic tribes speaking German.

I'm more interested in the ROmans speaking Latin. (and the equipment) First episode left me cold. If you get further, I'll be interested to hear your thoughts.

The Latin seemed pretty decent? I'm sure a philologist with a living Latin bent could find fault (use of dominus as 'sir' struck me as odd, but its used occasionally as a formal greeting in the sources; I'd have to search to check the usage by soldiers to officers though).

The equipment isn't wrong, per se, but seems to oversample high-visibility prestige armors. Helmets look to be almost all 'Gallic' - fancy, high visibility - but in 9 there should still be plenty of coolus, montefortino helmets mixed in there.

I am so glad that I am not the only one who looked at the scale and said "that's not right, Roman scale is thick and chunky!"
Lataaminen näyttää kestävän hetken.
