First Legion
LEGIO X were veterans of a hundred battles, but not every soldier made it back home to glorious Rome.
Caesar would call dead men like this heroes of the 10
th to spur the remaining troops to even greater lengths to prove themselves to their General. The 10
th was Caesar's most trusted Legion, and so they fought in nearly every major engagement of the Gallic Campaigns and later against his old friend Pompey at Pharsalus.
A Legionary lies wounded on the field. Perhaps the surgeons can save him, but perhaps not.
