First Legion
First Legion is pleased release Caesar's 10
th Roman Legion at the
Battle of Alesia! The 10
th Roman Legion, famous from Caesar's own commentaries, chose the Bull as their emblem.
Caesar raised and armed them himself and at one point mounted them on the horses of allied Gallic cavalry to escort him to a peace conference with the German King Ariovistus. They played a crucial part in the Gallic Campaigns, fighting in nearly every major engagement.
The 10th is presented here in battle formation, heavily engaged with the enemy. They could be on the open field of battle or manning the Alesia siegeworks. Lead by Centurion Gaius Crastinus they will do their duty for Julius Caesar once more!
A Roman Legionary charges ahead, his Gladius ready to thrust.
