Notes Based on conjecture, these gladiators are dressed only in trousers, padded or embroidered for protection (1 AP) and a brimless helm with cheek guards (5 AP). They use a large oval shaped Scutum reinforced with a vertical rib and the longer Spatha (treat as a broadsword). The further reach of this weapon combined with the extra coverage of his shield make up for the lack of armour, often giving them initiative in combat; whether first strike due to superior reach or being less hindered by unnecessary weight. Gaul Combat Style: Spatha, Scutum; and either ‘Daredevil’ or ‘Intimidating Scream’ depending on the ludus. Encumbrance: 9
