Affected by Roman Legion Training and Centurion Aura.

I heard that the ancient romans sucked with dealing cavalry so i made cavalry slaying bonuses to a minimum.

Whatu remind of some books is that rome relied in auxiliar units for the anti-ccavalry role...legionaries didnt have that role...

You mean auxiliary spearman?

Exactly

I guess there's no need for this unit.
