Two of the most distinctive of the Roman legionnaires were the Centurion and the Aquilifer. The Centurion commanded a cohort and with his high crested helmet was always visible at the forefront of battle. When not in battle, he carried a short vine staff, as part of his badge of office, and his instrument of the harsh discipline that was the hallmark of the legions. The Aquilifer carried the the Aquila, the eagle standard of the legion, and was one of the most trusted and honored soldiers in the legion, ranking just below the Centurion. They are represented here wearing the heavier Lorica Squamata scale armor, and are a great addition to your Roman themed renders.
