The evolution of the Roman heavy infantryman from the dawn of Rome right down to the coming of the Arabs. I've deliberately (and to save time) not included light infantry and officers. And while I've tried to keep the gear as authentic as I could, my focus was style rather than accuracy.

In order of appearance: Iron Age warlord, Etrusco-Roman Class I warrior, Etrusco-Roman Class II warrior, Republican legionaries (hastatus, princeps, triarius, post-Marian legionary), Principate legionaries ('regular', 'heavy' and Danubian flavours), Auxiliary infantryman, Third Century-crisis-era legionaries (in plate, scale and chainmail armour), late imperial period legionaries (scale, lamellar and chainmail armour), Belisarian soldiers (armoured infantryman, dismounted bucellarius), Roman militiaman, Maurikian infantryman, Heraclean infantryman.
