“All of them are Britons, none my people. They were the first to bend the knee to the Roman invaders, my people were one of the last to fall on the whole island.”

wow okay, celtic slander is wild lol. I guess Boudicca just doesn’t exist :]. The Roman slander is expected, considering that’s the point of the IF. Still though. Ouch.

“Everyone knows what happened in the Teutoburg forest: The Romans got their asses handed to them.”

Is this.. is this set before my pookie Germanicus wipes the floor with Arminius and the rest of the german tribes? Interesting. 

Ok, in all seriousness, I had a decent amount of fun reading this IF. I am one of the biggest Romaboos ever. Due to this fact, I am always biased in favour of Rome in virtually every situation. Reading this IF was a tad like poking at a wound just to get it to hurt. 

[”“What differentiates a Roman soldier from the barbarians?" Marcus looks at us, expecting anyone to throw a guess at him. 

"Pants?" Someone yells, causing a few chuckles.”]

On a funnier note, the Romans (at least not in the time period this IF is set in) didn’t wear pants. Trousers were actually worn by the barbarians. So..

Alright, I’ll shut up now :].



i wonder which Legion we’re serving in..

The IF is set in 192 AD, which is mentioned briefly at the beginning of it. Hati focusing on the Romans' loss over their victory is probably just because they hate Romans. Their intense hatred of the Romans is why they have no tolerance for the Britons for allowing themselves to be conquered and Romanised by them. Remember, Hati doesn't see the Britons that fought Boudicca when they look at them, they see the Britons that joined the Roman military willingly.

The Legion is not explicitly stated, but the IF takes place in Mogontiacum. The legion that was stationed there at the time was XXII Primigenia. Similarly, the Emperor who's name has thus far gone mysteriously unmentioned is certainly Commodus.
