    Imagine if Aurelian was alive during the Hunnic invasions... He just pulled a Mongol-style feigned retreat way before this was a well-known tactic. I can just imagine how he would out-class the lightly armoured Hunnic troops in a battle... But the thing that disturbs me the most is that these tactics were effective well into the 12 and 13th centuries (look at the Mongols), right when gunpowder weapons were starting to be introduced... Am really disappointed that there wasn't a general smart enough to realise the tactics used by the Mongols and beat them but well , any army before 1000AD could easily be defeated by any Roman Army under a decent general. And to be completely honest I think that most 14 and 15th century armies without gunpowder weapons could still be defeated by late Roman Armies under an excellent commander. Look at Agincourt where the heavy steel armour of the French was softened by British peasants with a long bow.

    @@RexGalilae The Turks indeed gave the Mongols a challenge but nowhere near enough. Their defeats is partly why they migrated into the East Roman Empire. Still , it is such a shame that the Western Roman Empire collapsed partly because of the Huns (which were defeated by Aetius anyways). Imagine how different Europe would be today if both the Eastern and Western Empire had time to develop better administrative practices. But in the end is the endemic corruption that ended them and a game that they played called "murder the emperor to become one". I also feel like the Republic gave birth to much better generals thanks to their strict cursus honorum where only men with at least 10 years of military experience could lead an army. Maybe if someone overthrew the emperor system and put in place a less-corrupt Republican system then who knows , the Eastern Empire fell in the 15th century , if both were alive maybe today we'd live in a completely different world... It is so nice to dream about this... Imagine a Caesar of the Empire that would go on to restore the Republic.

Instead of cherry picking isolated events from middle Republic to third century empire when the Republic was at its best and the empire, at its worst, we should look at it as a timeline from Marius to Marcus Aurelius. It's no surprise that the first half 170 odd years were known for its incessant civil wars and the next 170, as Pax Romana, the golden age of Rome.

    Aurelian was a brilliant military commander and he demonstrated that at Immae. He certainly didn't win the war against Zenobia at Immae, but he did defeat 5000 of Palmyra's most powerful cavalry with only a comparable number of light cavalry. I think the most significant damage done to Palmyra by the Battle of Immae would be psychological. Seeing 5000 of their most powerful military force defeated by light cavalry must have been quite demoralizing.

    Salvete ladies and lads! If some of you are curious about the appearance and equipment of Severan dynasty/Crisis of the Third Century era Roman troops, I recommend: -"Roman Infantry Equipment : The Later Empire" by Ian P. Stephenson (it focuses exclusively on the 193-284 AD timeline) -"Legions In Crisis, Transformation of the Roman Soldier, AD 192-284" by Paul Elliott -"The Army of Maximinus Thrax, The Roman Soldier of the early 3rd century AD" by Dr. Jan Eschbach and Stefano Borin -"Excavations at Dura-Europos, 1928-1937, Final Report VII, The Arms and Armour and other Military Equipment" by Simon James (focused almost entirely on the 3rd century AD Roman garrison until the fall of the city in 256) Best regards, Hugues

    Indeed, and this one is the real deal. In Roman times it was even narrower. Actually, it was dug INTO the cliff, because it was so steep that it was impossible to build a road otherwise. It's only in more modern times that the pass was widened with explosives to make a modern road.
